I don't put my Johnson 4hp outboard on 'TEER often but its nice to be able to when I want to - rowing a few hundred yards is one thing, a mile or more is something else. Protecting the varnished transom is critical. This mahagony bracket is a close fit over the transom and the motor mount screws press the bracket tight against the transom.

I thought about a thin pad, or maybe a cloth drapped over the transom, but just another thing.... beside the test run did not mar the varnish.

Next time I put the motor on 'TEER I'll try to remember to take a picture
