[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 382269, member: 15636"] I like a thick heavy durometer (tough, not soft) pad where the clamps tighten up against, then add a Fulton clamp-type motor lock to prevent theft. Some OB brackets also have the provision for 1 or 2 bolts and that'll help keep it secure too. FWIW I like the Fultons over other motor locks, due to the locking design and the tubular keyway. Just lube it up well (put in good thin lube 1st (like Breakfree CLP) then grease), but I use mine on a saltwater boat and never have had any issues (corrosion). I guess I have gotten lucky with my rigs, as I've always been able to trailer them with the motor down, less when launching. [/QUOTE]
