    Here's one so you can see my brackets



    Lots of allthread and nylocks. SS allthread is tough to find -- I lucked out and found the last piece at the local TruValue.

    it's called a business. I use to build playhouses. I had a lady tell me her husband could build one twice as big for the price I was asking. I laughed and said " so could I.“

    I had a pain getting mine to stay on initially due to the upward angle of my exhaust ports at the transom but I got a fix in place now and it works great. Can't imagine not having it at this point. We can actually have a conversation in the boat without yelling while crossing the lake at 30 mph to get to our riding spot. I have all the options as far as quick release and what not. That made the install quite a bit longer. image.jpg

    one negative aspect of it is I now am a little paranoid regarding engine noise because I can hear it now.

    I've also been on the fence about these. About how much are they? Any notice in top speed or handling/turning with one installed?
