HOW TO MOUNT AN OUTBOARD MOTOR CORRECTLY - Step By Step Do and Dont's!!

HOW TO MOUNT AN OUTBOARD MOTOR CORRECTLY - Step By Step Dos and Don'ts!!

We have been rebuilding my buddys Key West Bay Reef. We got the boat for a good price and my friend and I bought a couple of brand new Mercury 150 four strokes from an auction. Was a steal of a deal, so we bought them. I put mine on my Shoalwater and he wanted me to find him a boat to hang this motor on. With the crazy high prices of boats since the pandemic, it took me almost a year to find a good deal. Anyway this motor has been in his garage the whole time. I fixed the transom that the previous owner caused by over tightening the motor bolts and also put a transom save and a plate on there for added piece of mind. Anyway, check out the vid and let me know what you think in the comments!

Thanks for the informative video. Instead of paying someone to mount the outboard on my new RIB, I will do it myself.

I use to work with stainless nuts and bolts and they will gall/seize up when impacted. You're absolutely right.... only way to prevent this is to first brush on a little stainless never seize on the bolt threads. It will prevent seizing every single time. Good video by the way.
The marine company that mounted our motor messed up on it and that's why I'm here.
Disheartening to see your brand new boat taking on water. I was relieved to discover that it was just leaking through the Transom bolts though.

Show me how to mount an outboard 😅 without mounting the outboard 😂🎉😅😂 having the line on the motor level with the bottom of the boat was, a gem. Thanks for the facts.

Nice video. You made hanging an outboard seem easy AF.

[jorgeperez]

Muy buen video, no entendi muy bien porque el traductor no es muy bueno. A los peronoa de acero inoxidable hay que engrasar para que no se engranen?

[Mozart_Moser]

Congratulations and thankyou by this video. Show me about screewing into inside the boat. What tools and kind hadware and How do you make please.

[motofarmmx]

That biden harris sign in the buddies garage stood out to me like a sore thumb hahaha.

[hooksnooks]

What do you hook the cherry picker up to on the motor to hang it?

[ethanmarshall]

Do I need the sealant if mounting on a pontoon boat with the open area behind the motor? Idk if that makes sense lol

[macieyawn]

Where did u get transom piece instead of washers ??

[bjb]

Awesome video. Can you tell me where to get a transom saver plate? Thanks
