[QUOTE="mtnwkr, post: 184019, member: 4651"] I picked up a transom saver and it worked great right out of the box. This is just a $20 walmart special but seems to be fine for what I need, which is just to get it high enough to not hit the ground on rough roads. [img]https://farm6.static.flickr.com/5254/5477919030_abcdd5b484_z.jpg[/img] My trolling motor had a super long shaft. I took the head off and it was a simple task to cut it down and shorten the wires. It now rides just high enough to clear the top of the main outboard. This is the MK Riptide saltwater motor, not sure if they're all the same inside.
