[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 391640, member: 13599"] :WELCOME: to the World of Tin !!! I think that the most common problem that we have with the "pull and drop" mounts is that when in the stored position, being pulled by the vehicle on the trailer, the foot end is not snug and bounces up and down a lot. Same as with a big outboard on the boat. It must be snugged down so the foot of the TM does not move or else the mounting screws/bolts "can" come loose. Just something to consider. In "[i]MY [/i]" world, I would build some kind of mounting plate for it then have it securely welded in place so you get a better bolting pattern with locnuts. My personal advice to all new boat enthusiasts is to learn the Maritime Laws in your area. Boating Safety and Navigation Rules of the Road. It does not matter if it is a small pond or the The Great Beyond, the rules are the same. Have fun and be safe !! [/QUOTE]
