cvtripper Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 I'm after a full travel cover for a 15hp Merc 2 stroke mounted on the A-Frame.What does everyone else use, and how much did it cost?These guys want $245 - ouch!http://www.outboardcovers.com.au/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 David that is the cover I have and I thought the same OUCH but in saying that it is the best of the lot and it protected my motor very well whilst up in the gulf.A phone call and they ask what sort of motor, and there it is sent over from WA and landed on my front door within acouple of day very good service IMO.Just be aware that if you want a locking tab its extra and also if you are going to put the plane wing things on the bottom of the motor you need to tell this alsoregards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETnomads Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Hi DavidAny chance of getting you to post a picture of your drawbar with the outboard on it?CheersJody and Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvtripper Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks for the reply Kimbo, and the vote of confidence. I'm thinking for a little more I could have a nice checkerplate box that would lock the outboard up nicely and protect it a lot better than a vinyl(?) cover. I'll think about this one a bit more and if push comes to shove, I'll carry it in the car.Jody and Eric, yes, I could take a pic, but I haven't mounted it one the A frame yet. I have the brackets from when the van was built. I think there are plenty of others with photos already. Shane had a good mount coming from Roy @ RealEzy but I'm not sure if he has that yet.

JETnomads Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 The only outboard motor holder/bracket we could find was one where the outboard lay across in a horizontal position.On our XC (2003 model), this is not really possible. We would have t take off the fuel can holders and gas bottles to to this. Ours is of course a shorter A frame ... being older.We were just wondering if someone has something that would suit us.CheersJody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
