Specs:
Transom savers are designed to protect your boat's transom from road shock, vibrations, and other undue stresses while the boat is being towed. This is particularly important for boats with heavy motor-to-boat weight ratios like johnboats, bass boats, and other small vessels. This type of support will be more effective than your boat's standard tilt-lock feature, which wasn't specifically designed to deal with the stresses of road travel.
This transom saver can be installed on your trailer in 2 different ways. It comes with both a quick-release bolt-on adapter for your trailer's frame, and an over-the-roller attachment.
If your trailer has a center roller mounted on the frame at the rear, you will want to use the over-the-roller attachment. Simply attach the mount to the support and place it over the roller. Once the transom saver is in position, the weight of the engine being supported will apply enough pressure to stabilize and hold it in place.
If you don't have a center roller, you will need to bolt the quick-release adapter onto your trailer's frame. Once the bracket is in place, you can easily attach the support to the bracket using the included bolt. To install the bracket, just drill a hole in the center of the frame and bolt the adapter in place.
Once you have the trailer-end attachment of the support mounted, you can set up the support to prop up your boat's motor. The V-shaped end of the transom saver is what will cradle your boat's motor. It fits around the lower portion of the motor. To get started, remove the pin in the support and telescope it out until it spans the area between the trailer-mounted bracket and your motor. If your motor is equipped with a hydraulic tilt and/or trim, you will want to have it raised while positioning the transom saver.
Once the support is in position, reinsert the pin and lower the motor to ensure that there is enough pressure on the transom saver to hold it in place. Then hook the included rubber strap around the motor to hold it in place in the V-shaped cradle. This will help ensure that movement during travel won't cause the transom saver to slip or lose its position. Be mindful to remove the transom saver from the motor once you have arrived at your destination to prevent damage to the trailer, motor, or other equipment as you launch.

Hi, Steven here with etrailer.com. Thank you for joining me while we look at today's Tourney Pro transom saver, which is adjustable from 24 to 36 inches long, made out of aluminum. So I wanna go ahead and show you a closeup here real quick while I talk about the product a little bit. The support brackets on, you know, these particular support brackets are gonna protect your transom, your motor, your steering components from your boat from the shock and vibration while it's being towed. And this type of support's actually gonna be more effective than your boat's built-in tilt lock feature that comes on the motor, which really wasn't specifically designed to deal with the stresses of the road at such big levels. This particular unit's gonna come with two different ways to attach it.
It's gonna come with a quick release bolt-on adapter. So you can take off this part here and bolt this in place, or you can use the roller attachment. It does come with a 24 inch long by one inch thick rubber strap. And like I said, it does telescope from 24 to 36 inches. Collapsed, it's gonna be 24 inches long.
And extended, it's gonna be 36 inches obviously. It weighs about five pounds and it does have a two-year warranty. So it's really nice. And like I said, if you don't have a center roller to attach it on your boat, you can use the supplied quick bolt bracket as well. Well, I wanna thank you so much for joining me today.
That's been our look at the Tourney Pro Transom saver extendable from 24 to 36 inches long. Thank you and have a great day.
