My 2002 Parker engine bracket does not have a pre-welded spot to mount a kicker engine. The bracket I added was purchased from Armstrong directly as it was half the price this way versus buying from my Parker dealer.
The engine is mounted on the starboard side because it will be fully remote controlled. The controls are mounting in the cockpit, just to the right of of the captains chair, and slightly back. Right now it appears that I need to get 2' longer control cables.
BTW, this is a 2002 Yamaha 9.9hp High Thrust kicker. 25" shaft, 4 stroke. It will be plumbed to my Racor filter head, with a shut off valve.
I troll a fair amount and with the price of gas, I should save a few $$$. I also have an Auto-pilot so it should be a nice package.
Also, that piece of 2"x6" is being replaced by starboard. The engine mount is too thin for the engines bolts to hold it down.
Comments, suggestions,........... are all welcome.
