"The Leash" Outboard Motor Tether

[VolFan]

With his workout routine, @A-Jaycan probably lift his himself 😀…

This popped up on my social media feed today. Leash did it’s job!

 

Now I’m looking at buying one.

You might be wondering why I had a marine shop install mine.  Take a look at the pics I took today of my boat. Note that the strap is secured where the engine mounts to the boat.  They had to use an engine lift to do that.

 

I tried to do it myself ...but I wasn't strong enough.

 

 

That’s completely different than how it mounts to my 200 Pro Xs 4 stroke. My install was extremely easy and straight forward.

I would get one of those if I had a boat that warranted it. It does seem like a no brainer to have one on.

The Leash is on back order .

"Due to popular demand there may be a delay on shipment.

All orders will be fulfilled in the order they are received.

All new orders placed have an expected lead time of 4 - 5 weeks.

When this does ship you should receive tracking to your email.

Thank you."

Typical.

Did you have to pay up front or when it ships?

When it's offered, I always use Paypal for on line purchases.

Just checked my bank and it looks like they are waiting for it to ship

before they charge me.

I ordered from FishUSA because at the time of my order,

they indicated that it was 'in stock'.

Guess who was boondoggled ?

This guy.

I almost canceled the order but it looks like it's back ordered everywhere

including the manufacture.

So I'd be waiting either way. 

Hope I get it before the snow flies.

I’d call precision sonar and let them know you were duped and maybe they could get you one faster. I ordered direct from them when I got mine.

I’ve got a leash on my canoe paddle if ya need a loaner for now 😆

According to today's email from Ms Elizabeth at FishUSA,

I might see this thing soon.

This unit was deliver yesterday.

I've got a somewhat full plate this next week of so,

but I'll get it on the boat sooner enough.

I'll let you bassheads know how it goes.

1000% agree...

 

Thankfully my brother gets all my jokes...and Mrs. Daubs (6 years my junior), understand most as well.

Completed the install today ~

Are you happy with it?

Yes ~

Like anything for our boats I believe this product too is wildly over priced for what it is.

But the quality of everything seems solid.

It fits like a glove.

And I'd expect it to perform if & when I need it to,

just as advertised.

Keep the motor out of my lap.

 

In short order, I'm betting I'll completely forget it's even back there.
