@@jacobspassons5249 Yes sir. I see both sides to this "discussion". I have an older bass boat I'm redoing. I'm trying to figure out what to believe, and then, what to use. Or, for my situation, if I'd be better off making something. As none of them seem affordable to me. I read in one fishing forum, several people swear by a chunk of 4*4 wood. Trim down, place the block, trim down till it's secure. Said they've done it that way for years, no issues.
If you need steering clips you are not securing the weight past the pivot bushing. Allowing nearly the entire weight of engine to pound the bushings while driving down the road.
he is completely blind I called mercury they will not warranty the motor due to aftermarket add On's. he is so defensive I think he might be getting paid. everybody else agrees...it's more weight on your transom point blank, no brainer..!
Factory Yamaha Lock is meant for sitting still and servicing the trim tilt … It will destroy the housing . If you trailer on factory lock it will destroy it . I didn’t listen .. now I got a motor with 55hrs and the entire housing is cracked . Buy anything besides the factory lock
This device just takes pressure off of the Trim/Tilt system, it is still putting pressure on the transom.
That would a hydraulic system saver . That does nothing to take away loading of the transom
Title says transom saver which it does not
How does that save the transom?
I have the same question.
But the outboard still sways from side to side thought?
Does it fit the f115?
What’s wrong with useing the engine locks trim locks that are on the
Engine?
Looks great but whats to keep from bouncing? I didn't notice any strap around the tail end of the motor?
That's not a transom saver. A transom saver braces to the trailer. Duh.
How big is that center piece? My engines don't tilt up much. I have an Scout 277 lxd
Doesnt do shit for the transom.
but it’s still not taking pressure off your transom
A traditional "transom saver" doesn't either.
From talking to several boat dealers, the important thing is too keep the engine from moving.
fishing is my drug I could agree with that but i’d still think a traditional transom saver would work even better

fishing is my drug Yea i mean i think it’s all just preference and there is no by the book best way to do it
I have The 90 SHO DD26 doesn't make anything for the 90 SHO
So I went with Motor Mate works great
I just bought a "m y wedge" and now I am ordering yours for my 150 yamaha.

Thanks for the comments and education, but I have to ask. Is that Homestead Miami Speedway in the background???????
This guy can talk
All that clacking. Yeah...no go for me. Didn't do jack shit. Still going with MotorMate.
MM is way better.

what a joke🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like the factory part, thanks for the video.
Why do you even reply I've seen you post on many of these transom savers why not even voice you opinion and watch the video
This is not a transom saver.
Motor mate doesn’t move one bit
No need for steering clips either.
Please let me
Can't see a thing,,,
Boring
