Build outboard stand on trailer
I recently brought a longer inflatable boat (15.5ft) with aluminum floor, my motor is about 100 lb (20hp). I have a lot of concern about trailering the boat with outboard on the transom even with the transom saver since the inflatable tube will definitely made the engine bouncing and it would generate extra force to tear the join area between the transom and the tube.
Did some research and i saw people designed an outboard stand that can be attached on the trailer tongue area. See link below. The two U-bolts can hold the stand board pretty firm, and if i screw the outboard on the board, it should be stable, right?
Want to hear your advice.
