IMPORTANT NOTE: The base price is for local pickup at our SW Miami Shop. Check options for crating and shipping to the contiguous 48 States. All brackets are made to order, and the fabrication lead time is 3-4 workweeks. The finished bracket pickup window is also 3-4 workweeks, so make sure you can take delivery of your finished bracket within that time frame.
If an outboard engine bracket is the ultimate upgrade for most outboard-powered boats, this one takes it to the next level. Not only will you see a significant boost in speed and fuel range without replacing your existing twin outboards, but you can also repower with much larger—and potentially heavier—engines if you choose to. With the added flotation volume strategically positioned for optimal leverage, you’ll not only offset the weight of the bigger engines but also enjoy a flatter stance at rest. This generous setback translates into a flatter running angle, improving hull efficiency and keeping your cockpit noticeably drier.
On top of that, you’ll experience better handling and faster hole shots—your boat will shoot out of the water in half the time it used to take with your old engine setup. Safety is also enhanced with a lower platform that makes it easier to push yourself back onto the deck while in the water, and it also provides the perfect spot to attach an optional swim ladder.
Our skilled fabricators have been perfecting outboard engine brackets for nearly as long as deep-V offshore racing boats have been around. From our roots in sunny Miami—widely considered the birthplace of the offshore racing class—we’ve honed our craft alongside industry legends. We’ve been a consistent presence in the Southern Florida boating scene, evolving our designs over the years. Today, we combine decades of expertise with cutting-edge CAD technology and advanced manufacturing techniques, including finite element analysis, CNC machining, digital routing, waterjet cutting, and more.
There’s nothing small-time about our outboard engine brackets. Our products are the OEM choice for most Greater Miami-based boat manufacturers, as well as some of the largest in upstate Florida. We also hold type certifications from both the NMMA and ABYC. If you have any questions about outboard engine brackets, don’t hesitate to reach out for a no-compromise consultation.
Note: All brackets are made to order and shipped via LTL freight, so we do not accept returns. Please double-check your boat’s measurements to ensure the order is exactly what you need.
