Bob’s Machine Shop’s new fixed setback brackets provide advantages for all boaters, including improved fuel economy and better top speed.
Setback brackets re-position the motor into cleaner water to increase propeller efficiency and minimize prop slippage. Drag is reduced and the boat exhibits more bow lift, which results in a drier ride. The increased distance between the propeller and the hull also improves boat operation in reverse.
Bob’s Machine Shop’s fixed setback brackets are made of 5/8’s inch (16mm) thick, heavy-duty 6061 T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and can handle up to 550-hp engines. They have the same industrial design and appearance as Bob’s Machine’s hydraulic jack plates to give an overall look and feel of consistency.
Specifications:
- 4", 6" & 8" Fixed Setback brackets rated for up to 550HP
- 1.5″ of built-in lift, and 2 mounting hole options.
- Thick material and large radius make these one of the strongest available in the market.
Installation:
Installing the brackets is easy. Remove the motor and install the brackets in the transom’s existing holes. Then re-mount the motor on the brackets.
Because the brackets are designed to fit all motors with the standard BIA bolt pattern, there is no need to plug and re-glass the old holes. The brackets are also pre-drilled with two sets of mounting holes to provide different engine height adjustments. Comes with Bob’s limited lifetime warranty
Predrilled for shallow water anchors & optional additional rigid cross bars.
