Post GTR Motor Be Still Thingy
I picked up one of those new motor keepers from the GT shop the other day and installed it shortly after, it took me a while to take some pics and post them but here it goes.

Install was easy except for finding the right tap for the studs that go on the motor. Basically drill a hole, tap it, get a little lock tite and screw in the studs, that's all. I lined the bracket with hydroturf provided by GT and then painted it with a can of spray on bed liner stuff.

It is very nice to leave the straps at home and not look in the rear view mirror watching your motor bounce around to and from the launch. If you want to get one give Kyle or Hoyt a call, i'm not gonna put what I paid cause I don't know what they want to charge so call them and ask them.

Just picked my motor up yesterday. Don't know why they didn't sell me one of them thingies. I would have bought it. Hell, if they'd told me about it a while ago I'd have paid em to put it on.

Hell, I guess you gotta know somebody down there. I just picked my boat/motor up last Thurs and they said they didnt have any.

I just called and they said they still dont have any.

Guess I'll build my own.
