I whole heartedly agree with Chinewalker! Saw millions of transom savers sold with bass boats & never a transom saved yet for the reasons he states. They became popular when motor makers didn’t make good trail brackets. OMC had one that required the motor to be too high (not cool) & Mercury’s just didn’t work. Both are better now, but most bass boaters still use transom savers because dealers sell them. Big profit item!
I have actually seen them do damage to gearcases & if you leave them on the gearcase they really do a number on a prop on take off.
Guys like them on bass boats because they hold the motor straight while trailering.
