Has anyone thought of using the swim platform on the Tracker Pro Guide series for a kicker motor? I do a lot of trolling in Lake Huron and the inland lakes and a kicker is the way to go up north. I never use the swim platform so I thought why not use it. I braced it with two 1 1/2” x 1 1/2” x 1/4” aluminum angle to the two angled supports that are welded solid. I thought I would give it a try with my 9.9 2stroke kicker. I am a welder/fabricator with my own manufacturing and welding equipment so this was an easy build. I have had it hooked up for over a year now with no issues, no cracks or deforming. I have been looking high and low for structural diagrams of how the transoms are put together with no luck. Just curious if anyone else has done this. I'm planning on upgrading to a 9.9 pro kicker, I know those weigh about 30 pounds more than the 2 stroke motors.
