[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 423218, member: 13975"] I would. It's not rock solid as it has a little bit of twist to it when the trolling motor is turned sideways, however, it is sturdy enough for the 45 lb thrust motor I have. If it was over 55 lbs thrust I'd try to brace it some. I think some fairly thin aluminum sides could be fabbed with a bent flange to fasten to the deck and it would stiffen it up considerably. Alumacraft wants 20-40 bucks for it though so it may also be worth checking out to see if someone could make a stiffer one for you. [/QUOTE]
