Panther 550410 Outboard Motor Bracket, 4-Stroke, 10 Inch Vertical Travel, Up to 35 HP

The Panther 550410 is an anodized aluminum outboard motor bracket built to mount an auxiliary or trolling motor on the transom and adjust it to five vertical running positions to suit changing water or load conditions. It is designed to handle the increased weight and torque output of modern four-stroke engines and is compatible with both long and short shaft motors, supporting motors up to 35 HP and 263 pounds with 10 inches of vertical travel.

Height adjustment is hand-operated with a simple turn of a knob. Heavy-duty stainless steel torsion springs counterbalance the motor's weight so lifting and repositioning stays easy even at the upper end of the weight rating. The mounting board is 2 inches thick and extra-wide for a stable base, and the bracket is assembled with aircraft-type stainless steel hardware for corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Setback measures 8 3/4 inches in the up position and 14 inches in the down position.

The bracket meets ABYC Standards and must be used with the Panther 55-0415 safety cable, which is included. This makes it a straightforward, adjustable mounting solution for boaters who run a secondary outboard or trolling motor and need reliable, repeatable height control without tools.
