I am considering finding a type of parallel pivot bracket that could carry a small kicker 6HP 4-stroke on the transom of my X, outside the rudder on the off side of the ladder. It would be useful for emergency if the main motor goes kaput, and it would be much more economical and quieter for long trip steady cruising at 5 mph or knots .... 'Haven't yet looked for brackets that would work ... The bracket needs to be able to put the motor pretty deep, to keep its prop and intake underwater while the boat is rocking or pitching with waves and boat-wakes, and it needs to be able to raise up enough to get the prop out of the water even if tacked over on that side sailing, whether having to tilt the little motor, and if tilting is needed, it has to have the clearance from the transom, or over the top. 'Also cannot be allowed to interfere with rudder.Any suggestions, brands, links, or specifics recommendtions ?
