I’m stumped. Anyone know how this works?
This is the motor mount that came with our boat but I can’t figure out how it mounts on the…rail? Lifeline? Toe rail? Anyone know how these work?

Never mind, it’s for the RIB not the boat. Always google twice post once.

That’s not for a RIB. It is for a an Avon redcrest or similar. Only good for a handful of horsepower.

Happy to not own this one. [emoji10]. Can I change the name and pretend someone else asked a dumb question?

Pirates own their actions. Don’t let the team down.

Always providing the inflatable has the integral straps glued to it to take the 2 sticking out bits (prongs, I meant.)

It fits a AVON Redcrest inflatable Dinghy for a outboard, my first Dinghy was a Redcrest back in the 80'S.

You can--as long as you do it in less than half an hour--goodness knows why the time limit.

I have one that just like this one on my 40 year old Achilles inflatable, mounts a 2.5 hp Tohatsu 2 stroke.

Re: I’m stumped. Anyone know how this works?
Yeah, the two prongs slide into the rubber mounts, not straps, on the stern of the Avon. Don't throw it away!
