NRS Cataraft Motor Mount

Turn your cat into an outboard motor powered boat with the NRS Cataraft Motor Mount. Great for fishing or motoring through the slow, flat stretches. The heavy duty 14 thick aluminum plate is bent to fit over the horizontal bars of an NRS Cataraft Yoke. The mounting surface is 12 wide. The clamping screws on your motor press against the Motor Mount's surface, while the opposite side of the clamping cradle presses against the yoke bars, creating a solid, secure transom for the motor. The Motor Mount plate is held in place by a 2 ft NRS 1 HD tie down strap included when you don't have the motor mounted. A cataraft adapts well to use with an outboard motor. You can make convenient seating for the person operating the motor by moving your NRS Frame Seat Bar back to a comfortable position. Or, you can attach a Padded Raft Seat or Angler Swivel Seat on a Passenger Seat Mount or Angler Seat Mount clamped on the yoke or a crossbar. In our experience, a 10 hp motor is generally as large a motor as most boaters use. Even a 3 hp motor will move a cat along at a pretty good clip. Always attach a safety rope or strap from your motor to the frame.
