What to consider when purchasing an outboard bracket for your boat
Outboard mount brackets are essential for almost any boat. Whether you're using your outboard motor for fishing, skiing or just pleasure cruising, it’s important to have a reliable motor mount bracket that can handle whatever Mother Nature throws at it. Before you buy an outboard bracket, here are some key questions you should ask yourself:
- What size outboard motor bracket do I need?
The size of the outboard motor bracket you'll need depends on the power and weight of your outboard motor. It's important to select a bracket that can handle the load without compromising safety or performance.
- What material should my outboard motor bracket be made from?
Outboard motor brackets are typically constructed from stainless steel, aluminium or galvanised steel. Aluminium is lightweight and corrosion-resistant, making it an excellent choice for saltwater use. However, a galvanised steel bracket may be more cost-effective if you plan on using your outboard motor in freshwater only.
