Fitment & Ordering

Verify the exact model, engine horsepower and weight, bolt pattern, transom capacity, offset and steering and tilt clearances with the boat and plate manufacturers. Confirm package contents, mounting hardware, tether requirements and whether your engine needs the optional clamp-on kit. Follow the manufacturer's installation, locking-pin, trailering and maintenance instructions. Have a qualified marine installer assess the setup. Do not rely on the kick-back mechanism to establish safe operating depth or protection from underwater obstacles. Contact C and O Marine Parts with your boat, engine and mounting details for help confirming the correct configuration.
