"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 one-half inch,
heavy-duty 6061 T6 aircraft-grade aluminum and can handle up to 300-hp
engines. They have the same industrial design and appearance as Bob's
Machine's hydraulic jackplates to give an overall look and feel of consistency.
SB4 – 14lbs
SB6 – 16lbs
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"
