I have an 89WK which I just broke one of the springs on the engine bracket. I believe from reading the forum that the bracket is made by Garhauer Marine. I looked them up online and found model OB125 that looks identical. My question is: Is this the same mount sold by Catalina Direct? The Garhauer price is $170 and the Catalina Direct price is $209, which makes me believe that they are different. I called Garhauer and they agreed to sell me a replacement braket for dealer cost which was very kind of them. Anyway I just want to make sure I am replacing the mount with the same type my boat came with. Does anyone have any more info?
Thanks again

Bruce,
how heavy of a motor are you putting on it?
It won't lift a new Honda like mine (108 lbs)
I replaced mine with a Garelick

I recently replaced my original issue Garhauer with the new model, which I bought directly for $170. I love it, and it practically lifts my 8 hp, 2 stroke motor by itself.
