Kent Blair modifies the outboard motor mount on a 1980 Drascombe Lugger named ONKAHYE to prevent the propeller from dragging in the water while tilted.Watch The motor previously interfered with the transom, preventing the latch from engaging at the highest position.0:19 To correct the angle, he installs a double shim at the top of the mount and a single shim at the bottom, effectively tilting the motor away from the transom.0:28 He also fabricates a protective pad to sit beneath the motor's locking feet, preventing the metal hardware from damaging the gel coat.0:42 To secure the locking tabs against vibration during transit or motoring, he installs a small screw and a retention line.0:52 Finally, he applies protective tape to the transom to prevent scratches during the lifting process.1:41 These modifications allow the motor to be raised and locked into the top position using one hand from the tiller.1:54
