he picked up the outboard for a good price but unfortunately no twist grip , just reach back and throttle up ( you can see towards the end of the video as he reaches back to do this!!) .
He made a mould to fit perfectly fit down through the recess at the back of the kayak and the checkerplate ( im going shooting with him later and will ask him the specifics).
Got to admit , when i took it for a play and got it up on the plane - i loved it
All the very best.............

Very kind of you and I look forward to the mounting info. As an aside, the youtube link doesn't open for reasons unknown. Enjoy the shooting. Cheers.

Your welcome and try the link now on youtube!!!!
Spoke to my mate and he said he applied some vasiline to the rear of the kayak ( yeh i know sounds dodgy lol ) , for the mould he used a piece of wood and then used car body filler with not too much hardener ( there i go again lol ) so it would slow the curing process down , this is what made the transom and a perfect fit for the kayak .
he just added the straps to the cleats for exptra support and security!!

Crickey, dodgy is an understatement! I shall approach this project with caution, that's for sure. You have to wonder just what his missus thinks about all this?
