[QUOTE="richg99, post: 424847, member: 4376"] [i][b][u]I'd think that a setup that didn't offset the weight of the outboard to where it was pushing down on the transom as opposed to hanging off would be more damaging[/u][/b][/i] I believe that the discussion was more about my [i][b]adding a spring inside[/b][/i] of the otherwise solid transom support. I fully agree with you that a motor just hanging off the end of the transom, and bouncing around on every railroad track, would not be good. I;ve been using the spring-inside system for a month or so. That is maybe 6 or 8 trips of 50 miles or more one way. richg99 [/QUOTE]
