Just another thought, I used to have my kicker mounted on a bracket but I changed it. It is now mounted directly on the transom. Either way will work but I prefer to have it mounted directly on the transom after having it both ways, I think it puts less strain on the transom when it is mounted directly on the transom and it will ride more out of the water when not in use, and it looks better IMO. I made an aluminum bracket that I thru bolted to the transom with ears welded on it that I bolt the kicker to and just tighten the mounting screws on the top, it makes a nice solid mount.
