Hello

I had the original alu bracket on my H733. It is a bit heavy with twin Mercury 150 four strokes and I am building a new full flotation hull extension/ bracket. A naval architect calculated than the extension should be 23 cm longer and 30 cm wider than the original alu bracket.

There is a very long thread on the North America section on the Willard 730 restoration and there is a link to the USA bracket manufacturer. Click image for larger version

thanks for the references......I priced the fiberglass ones that can be custom made in Florida but they gave estimates beginning at $4500 USD so am searching for a situation like yours, where a previously fabricated one becomes available for some reason.....wish you were closer; better yet, wish I was closer to where you are! thanks again...

Bryan,
Cannot PM you for some reason.

The original bracket is at the yard in Phuket. I am ready to give it to you, if I find a way to transport it to the USA. I don't know how to ship it by parcel.

Please PM me.

Gene
