New to the sight, this is cool! I was wondering what any opinions of the effects of a kicker bracket mounted on the back of my 12x32 tracker would have on the boat. My thoughts were it would allow me to jack it up in shallow water and would put the motor in clean water to run. It's only a 5hp so I wasn't expecting much but it didn't push it as well as I though. I'm going to take it off this weekend and mount it directly to the boat to compair (should have done that first). I also have a mini jacket plate that gives you 4" I may try also. Thanks
