[QUOTE="Allen, post: 264432, member: 389"] I suppose I should vouch better for the transom saver based on experience. I launched my Lund Fisherman with Yam 115 4S along with the boat trailer almost 4 feet in the air a couple summers ago while running over the spare tire after its carrier came apart on some washboard roads. Straps held the boat to the trailer and the transom saver was still in place after that fall from the sky. Two small dings in the hull where the trailer fenders hit the outside rib on the hull, but no issues with either the motor or the transom afterwards. Note #2, maybe 6-7 years earlier I had done something similar when the boat and trailer went airborne after hitting a porcupine, again...no damage to the boat/motor, but did have to get trailer fenders and a new axle after that incident as well. So yeah, I like my transom savers. I suppose I should stop using them so I can get my insurance company to buy me a new boat the next time this one goes airborne. :;:smokin [/QUOTE]
