| A properly designed transom does not need to be saved from the weight of the motor.
However the shock from bouncing can be a problem if you trailer with the motor above the highest trim level. The tilt portion of the trim and tilt is not nearly as strong as the trim portion. So if you trailer with the motor in any tilt position you should either use a My-wedge type device or a transom saver. If you use a lower unit to trailer type of transom saver, be very sure that the boat is completely secured to the trailer. if the boat moves on the trailer the transom saver will put extreme stress on the motor, transom, and trim and tilt hydraulics. | |
