[QUOTE="seasprite, post: 220939, member: 4334"] Among my fleet of boats I have a 1951 star craft 14 foot with a 15hp mercury 2 stroke. With the same trouble you have. The site that nomowork suggested is a good template. If you can weld or know someone that can you can make your own. Save the $64 plus shipping and do it yourself. I welded a strait rod out past the trailer then welded the angle up to the motor. You need a transom saver for sure. The bouncing not only will crack the boat itself but the motor as well. Driving with the motor all the way down will end up in a broken or shaved off skeg. Until you figure it out use a ratchet strap to snug it up when towing. [/QUOTE]
