For those who don't already know, I only have 1 engine on my Whaler where there used to be two. The funny thing is that I cannot move it to the center since the shaft length would be too short. It runs just fine, but looks terrible. I did, however, fill the empty space with a home made kicker bracket. I thought everyone here needed a good laugh.

You've got a boat right? Your ahead of about 80% of the members here at AC, so don't worry about what others think....just go out and enjoy it, then post a fish report! :7

Cosmetics don't catch fish, fisherman do.
Don't sweat the small stuff Steve.

it may seem to work fine, but i would guess a 15% raise in fuel economy if you cut the transom and mount the engine proper

Some pics from the day out with my dad last Sunday. My Whaler doesn't get out much. Mostly I use my Porta-Bote.

How stable is the radar mounted like that?

When I had both engines & ran fast in heavy seas, it would wobble a bit. For regular conditions its no problem. I fabricated this myself and it lays down when I cover the boat. 2 pins to remove & lay it down. There are also LED lights under the radome. I could have done a more cosmetic job of securing to the grab rail, but overall I'm satisfied with the antenna mount. I just don't want a full tower.

I was not questioning whether you did right or not Steve.
And who's to say there is a right way or not.
I've been impressed with YOUR technical knowledge ever since
I met you the first time some 3-4 years ago. Remember the
night you were in your small boat out testing your new
LED lights. Those damn lights were blinding red bright!
