Thanks Terry!

Not sure if I like this idea. Those cowlings seem to scratch easily.

I think the answer would be to have offshoredrillin laser cut a piece of 3M clear-bra, or the like for the top of each of the motors. I see a lot of things get set on top of outboards, including drinks and cameras. Having the top protected with a clear-bra material would be the ticket, and then you could use a suction cup or anything else up there.

*It can't have too much suction though, as that can pull up the clear-bra.

That application was for triples. Not sure about twins?

It's fine on twins or quads too. Some of the quad guys used two but it's not necessary.
