Outboard Mounted on Trailer?

[tkniat]

For number of reasons I don't want to tow our boat with the motor at back. We have limited space available in our van. And since
this is a four stroke engine it travels much better in upright position.

I'm planning to make a bracket to hung my 10hp Honda outboad on a winch post next to the bow of our MacGregor and I wonder if anybody
has any experience to share about similar arrangement.

Appreciate all constructive comments

I had a similar arrangement on my old boat and it worked well. I started to construct a bracket that would attatch to the trailer ladder,but decided I didn't need the extra tongue weight,even though the Honda BF2 is 28 lbs.
As long as the tongue weight is ok,and the motor isn't too heavy,I think it would be ok.
