Do you keep your boat near Philly, or down on the Bay?

OK...I thought I was damage free from this uh-oh moment...BUT...I did manage to bend the outboard motor bracket. It's not critical, I just can't raise and lower it anymore. Any suggestions on a replacement bracket? I have a Yamaha 8hp, long 4 stroke. I believe the current bracket is designed for a 2 stroke.

I bought the 4 spring model from Catalina Direct last year and I am very happy with it. A little pricey, but totally worth it.

Rick - I keep my boat on the Barnegat Bay.

I would like to raise it vertically as oppossed to using the tilt/trim on the motor...but it is not critical now. This wil be an end of the season fix.
