[QUOTE="Sluggo, post: 264427, member: 667"] I've "heard" that newer boats have a strong enough transom to not need any type of transom "saving" but I am skeptical. I suppose if you trade boats before they get 5-10 years old you'll never have it long enough to see a problem. I also don't understand how that wedge can displace any pressure from the transom so I still prefer one that goes from the lower unit to the trailer. I recently replaced my Attwood transom saver, which kept marking the lower unit badly with the bolt heads inside the rubber pads, with a transom saver that has a large rubber V. So far I like it.
