Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

T-Motor Stabilizer

Hello all,

I have been looking for a way to stabilize my T-motor a little better than it currently is.
As of right now I have Mk fortrex with the strap that comes with it along with a plastic bounce buster however I noticed no matter how I adjust these 2 things anytime I get on lake erie or in rough water in general it has more play that it should and can be scary.

I have seen people run u bolts into their decks and run bungee cords around the tmotor to stabilize it and I have heard this works pretty good however my rod lock is not big enough to be able to access the spot to be able to run a ubolt but I did just see a product made by RMC Boat Locks called the Troll-Lock I believe really it is basically a really nice looking upgrade to a bounce buster and looks like it could be very good for rough water situations and I was hoping maybe someone of you guys maybe had tried this product out or had any suggestions at all for dealing with this issue.

Thanks for any thoughts.
