Thanks for the note. I ordered the following:
4 x IM30-12S (MAXIMOUNT)
They seem like the right weight and strength for the ME0913. Let me know if I'm way off base here. The price was also bearable.
Cheers & Thanks,
Bradley

I have been advised that using flexible motor mounts is a good idea to reduce the load transmission to the hull--she's an older woodie. Anyway I'm looking at vetus and merequipment among others and all the mounts seem to suggest a minimum weight of say 50 pounds--I assume this is per mount. Since I'm going to use 4 mounts and the ME0913 is about 50 pounds total with all accoutrement that would be only about 12.5 pounds per mount. What should I do? Does anyone have suggestions on motor mounts to buy? Also does anyone know a good chandlery in the SF Bay Area where I might get these (I tried Svendson's and a few others but no one has any in stock). The last question: do I even need them or can I just bolt them to a piece of 1" marine ply bolted to the stringers?
