Kicker bracket limit?

[hsiftac]

I was wondering what you all think about putting a mercury 2007 25 horse 4 stroke on a kicker bracket? Would it be too much weight? it would be used for 25 horse limit lakes on a 17ft tracker pro team with a 2 stroke 50horse as the main motor

Most of your backets only hold up to 20 hp. You would have to find something that could hold it because a 25 hp and 4 strokes are very heavy. BPS only has them up to 20 so i haven't seen any locally. You might want to search online for something but it is a lot of weight for one bracket.

I used to have a long shaft 15 horse 2 stroke johnson on the bracket linked above^ It worked good but I wouldn't have put anything much heavier on it. When running under power of the main motor the kicker was tilted up and you would not believe how much that bad boy would bang around.
