Pat the bracket does raise and lower the motors while running. If not careful it will raise the engines out of the water. I really like the bracket setup.
Vicious22 your 22 outboard was on my short list when it was for sale. Clean rig!! Beautiful boat.! What kind of power were you getting out of those v-8s' and what speeds? I have just 10 hrs. on my 280s' and turning 14.5x26 machs? at 7000 so far. I haven't gps'd yet,but will have # soon. I am going to try some 26 bravo's next. Any prop suggestions will be appreciated.
