Custom Mounting Brackets -How?

Custom Mounting Brackets for Underwater Thrusters and Electric Outboard Motors

At HobbyWater, we understand that every marine application is unique — especially when it comes to mounting high-powered electric thrusters like our E30，DW Underwater Motor series. Whether you’re building a lightweight inflatable, a rigid hull, or a prototype watercraft, a well-designed mounting bracket is essential for safety, performance, and easy installation.

That’s why we offer custom-designed mounting brackets tailored to your specific boat configuration.

Why Custom Mounts Matter

Unlike generic outboard motors, electric thrusters vary in size, cable layout, and propulsion dynamics. A universal mount often doesn’t provide the optimal angle, depth, or support. Our made-to-order brackets ensure:

• Proper propeller depth and alignment
• Reliable strength and corrosion resistance
• Secure fitment on different transom types
• Clean cable routing and easy maintenance

What We Need to Design Your Bracket

To create a mounting solution that fits your needs perfectly, we ask you to provide the following information:

1. Transom Design & Dimensions

• Is the transom vertical, angled, or flat?
• What is the transom thickness?
• Do you require a clamp-on or bolt-on mount?

2. Ideal Propeller Depth

• What is the desired propeller depth below the waterline?
• What is your boat's draft when loaded and unloaded?

3. Motor Installation Preferences

• Will the ESC be mounted on the boat or integrated with the bracket?
• Do you need cable routing channels built into the mount?

4. Height & Tilt Adjustment

• Should the mount support adjustable depth or tilt functions?
• Will the mount stay in place permanently or be removable for transport?

5. Space or Weight Constraints

• Are there any limitations in width, height, or total weight for the mount?

If you’re working on a custom watercraft or commercial prototype, we’re happy to co-develop a solution that fits your performance goals.
