[QUOTE=Big Grey Wolf;4314122]When we use to hunt the Peace River for bear we used a 4 tine pitch fork (metal) bolted to the leg. When you hit a rock or sandbar bounched the motor out of danger. Worked like a dam, poor mans jet.[/QU
There you go. Innovation and happiness go hand in hand!! Seen similar setups which worked just fine. As long as the motor floats on the transom and is not locked in with hydraulic tilt life is good.
