Who makes a good Boat Motor Support ?

Hey, i saw a boat for sale with one of these.
https://www.firstchoicemarine.com/p-17849-seasense-motor-support-bracket-50073731.aspx
And i think it would be a good idea to put on my 14ft glasspar, so the 50hp motor doesn't drag on my transom so much when i go over bumps and such.

Anyone know who makes good ones, for a fair price, and are they pretty easy to install ?

Swivel-eze Cabelas and Bass Pro shops make the best.
Several models and styles available.

Shop around.

there is nothing wrong with the seasense. but you need to figure how long the transom bracket needs to be to get you motor high enough. the make adjustable ones also. http://www.iboats.com/Marine_Store/...aver--submit.Search--submit.x.22--submit.y.10

the first 2 motor supports i had both had pins with spring clips to hold them on the trailer. a pain in the a** to get under and hook when the baot was dripping water on you and the launch was muddy. the one i have now has a plate mounted on the trailer that the support bayonets into with a quarter turn. it can get installed while standing high and dry behind the boat. a major improvement. other than that all three worked the same and seemed to be about the same quality.

Does the one witch the pokey end just go in that hole then to the bullet to hold motor up, and the other one with the fork end, go somehow onto the trailer ?
