No, wasn't trying to duck out
Until you figure out the best angles and keeping the motor perpendicular to the water, it is hard to say which will be the best solution, a raised bracket or step-up deck. I futzed around with mine quite awhile before deciding and drilling the first hole, and mine was a simpler set-up. I also had an auto-cad mounting template from MG and glad I didn't do a thing before the motor arrived.
