This motor mount set is a direct replacement for your Yanmar motor mounts.
Mounting holes for our Oceanic Innovations motor mount are in the same location as the original Yanmar motor mounts. No changes to bunks are required. These mounts are a direct replacement for your original or OEM Yanmar motor mounts.
Significant improvements over the original mounts
- Stainless Steel - Will not rust like original mounts when exposed to salt water!
- Urethane - Will not deteriorate with exposure to diesel fuel!
Issues with original steel and rubber mounts that will not occur with these motor mounts!
1 - Rust - When your old mounts rust the rubber will detach from the mount making a dangerous situation of excessive vibration that could cause your sail drive seals to tear. Water needs to stay on the outside of your boat!
2 - Rubber Swelling due to diesel fuel - Rubber in the original mounts will swell due to intermittent exposure to diesel fuel. Once the rubber swells it contributes to the rubber detaching from the steel. Also causing excessive vibration and potentially causing Sail Drive seals to leak water inside your vessel.
