Description
TENOB product. NZ made with pride.
New Zealand’s most popular auxiliary/trolling outboard motor mounting bracket for over 36 years.
Superior construction means that it is possible to have a motor mounted on this bracket while towing your boat on the road. No parts to come loose or fall off due to use of pressed stainless steel pivots and shake-proof fasteners.
Lifetime polished marine grade 3mm stainless steel.
Ratings for Rise & Fall brackets (for both 2 and 4 stroke motors) – standard shaft, up to 25hp (18kw), long shaft up to 20hp.
Maximum motor weight of 58kg.
Uses varnished hardwood. Hardwood is an ideal material because the outboard motor clamps sink slightly into the surface, thus reducing the risk of the motor slipping off. This cannot be achieved with plastic mounts.
Four styles available; fixed or rise & fall, each in either transom mount or platform mount.

Spare parts for TENOB outboard motor brackets only –
(G) OU02 – Large compensating spring – 29mm outside diameter x 147mm overall length (107mm excluding ends). For models code OU01 & OU015. Two per bracket. Sold each. (This is the standard and only compensating spring used on OU01 & OU015 brackets).
(H) OU03 – Spring kit contains 2 large compensating springs (OU02), 8mm bolts, nuts & spacers. For models code OU01 & OU015. This kit has two uses – a. Fit to a bracket which has no springs b. If the bracket is too heavy to lift because of the motor weight, then the springs can be doubled up to four. This typically is the case for motors over 8hp. The additional springs are fitted to the outside of the bracket arms. To do this change the bolts (use the longer bolts supplied in the kit) holding the existing springs and fit the extra springs under the bolt head i.e. the bolt now holds the end of two springs.
(I) OU035 – Small stainless steel spring. Fits bracket handle. Two required. Sold each.
(J) OU04 – Replacement board. Suits TENOB stainless steel brackets codes OU01, OU015, OU08. Fastens to bracket with four screws (not included). 260mm wide x 190mm high.
(K) OU0408L – Replacement board for OU08L.
(L) OU0406 – Replacement board for OU06S. 220mm wide x 162.5mm high.
Please Note: Outboard brackets are a Tenob manufactured and/or assembled part with several components. For that reason, it is not unusual for the product to show as out of stock if the assembled version hasn’t yet been entered into stock. In most cases you can check the stock level of the individual parts on this site. Please order as normal and call us if you need a live update on availability.
