Hey guys,
Have been wondering about this for a while and looking online seems to get about a 50/50 response in regards to transom savers. Thing is a lot of times they are discussing big motors, too.
I am hauling a 9.5 hp Johnson and from some of what I have read people mentioned they trailer with it in the up position with a rod holding it and then strapping it down....my motor appears to have that rod and so I rigged it like that...take a look at the pics, should I be alright or is there danger of something snapping?
What's your take? Is this a non issue with low hp motors?
