What are the advantages of the outboard flotation bracket?
In this short 2 minute, but very informative video Regulator Marine (builder of sportfishing boats from North Carolina) explains just a few advantages of the outboard flotation bracket.

Outboard motor bracket prices vary depending on many specifications and options. Every boat is different and so is the bracket.
Prices for outboard bracket with swimming platform start from $6k for a single outboard and from $7k for the twin outboard motors, etc.
Outboard bracket/mount without swimming platform (pod) is cheaper (usually installed under existing swimming platform).
We do not sell just outboard brackets at the moment. Sorry. We provide turn key inboard outboard conversion service only (with transom reinforcement).
First of all, for any inboard outboard conversion proper and professional transom reinforcement needed also.
Installing bracket without any transom reinforcement is very dangerous.
Almost any boat approximately up to 65-70ft long can be converted from inboard engines to outboard motors.
There is no one inboard outboard conversion price for all boats. All boats are different: different boat sizes, different boat conditions, different transom angles, curves, forms, etc.
Every customer has different requests. Some boats need special approach. One boat might need more engineering and work, the other one much less.
Boats even of the same year, make and model may differ in very many ways and so are the budgets.
Usually we are able to determine the cost of inboard outboard conversion after boat inspection.
Approximate budgets (bracket with swimming platform + labor + materials):
boats (up to 25ft) - for one outboard motor budget starts from $15k;
boats 26-27ft - for one-two outboard motors budgets start from $20-25k.
Outboard motors, rigging, parts, accessories, electronics, etc. are not included, but we can help with it.
First step for every and any inboard outboard conversion is an inspection of the boat/vessel for any existing damages, water intrusion, rot, etc.
Usually it takes from 1 to 2 months, if boat has no any issues. In some cases it can take 3 months, but it all depends on boat/project.
Yes, we can install some new modern equipment onto your boat also.
