See this members solid bracket he installed on his Montauk 170. http://www.whalercentral.com/infusion...r_id=11649

I couldn't stand mine and my friend can't stand his either. It bounces, busts knuckles, and in general very difficult to use even on smooth water. http://users.sisqtel.net/jkriz/Outrag...7/back.jpg If I would have kept the boat, I would have changed out that adjustable kicker mount for a solid one like shown in my other link above.

I use it to take me into very skinny water and it works great. I don't use it for a kicker because I use my main motor(90 2 cycle) for trolling. I debated between a fixed and adjustable mount and the fixed works well for me. I only put the small motor on when I'm going shallow. If I'm going offshore I leave it at the marina. My main motor will troll at 4-5 mph so I really don't need a kicker.

I trailer my boat and usually fish in 1 to 4 foot seas in Lake Erie. Hope this helps. Al
