Outboard engine carriers

Outboard motor stands are an essential accessory for the proper maintenance and storage of your engine. These sturdy supports allow you to avoid awkward postures and potential engine damage during periods of inactivity, especially during winter storage. Whether you own a small outboard for your tender or a more powerful engine for your main vessel, Nautica Basile has the right stand for your needs.

Lifting an outboard motor by hand is a risky and strenuous operation. Our stands are designed to distribute weight evenly, preventing accidental drops and allowing you to work safely. The models offered by Osculati and Rooteq are made with high-quality materials, such as corrosion-resistant galvanized steel tubes and multi-layer wooden boards for stable and secure support.

How to choose the right outboard motor stand? The choice depends primarily on the weight and horsepower of your outboard motor. It is essential to always check the maximum load capacity indicated by the stand manufacturer and ensure that the mounting board is adequate for the size of your engine's leg. An undersized stand could collapse under the weight, causing costly damage to the engine and jeopardizing your safety. Also, consider the available storage space, opting for a folding model if necessary.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

How much space does a folding outboard motor stand take up when not in use?

Folding stands are designed to be compact and easy to store. The dimensions when closed vary depending on the specific model, but they generally occupy a minimum space of about 25x70x90 cm. We recommend that you consult the product specifications to know the exact dimensions.

Which outboard motor bracket is best suited for a 25 HP engine?

For a 25 HP outboard motor, it is advisable to choose an outboard motor trolley with a minimum capacity of 60-80 kg. Make sure that the mounting board is large enough to support the engine leg stably and that the structure of the stand is robust and resistant. Rooteq models offer excellent value for money for this power range.

Can I use an outboard motor stand to store the engine outdoors?

Yes, you can use an outboard motor stand to store the engine outdoors, but it is essential to protect it adequately from the elements. We recommend covering the engine with a waterproof cover to prevent damage caused by rain, sun, and humidity. Even if the stands are made of durable materials, prolonged exposure to the elements can accelerate corrosion.

How can I ensure that the outboard motor trolley is stable during use?

To ensure maximum stability, place the stand on a flat and stable surface. Make sure that all the legs of the stand are firmly on the ground and that the weight of the engine is evenly distributed on the mounting board. If the stand is equipped with wheels, lock the brakes to prevent unwanted movement during maintenance operations.

What should I do if my engine is heavier than the maximum capacity of the outboard motor stand?

Do not use a stand with a capacity lower than the weight of your engine. Using an undersized stand can be dangerous and cause damage to the engine. In this case, you need to purchase a stand with an adequate capacity or consider alternative solutions, such as a wall mount.
