Last season I came to the same conclusion as Jonny regarding the outboard bracket on my corribee (Still to implement). The main advantage of this design is that you can lift the engine and get to a fouled prop without having to put ones life at risk by hanging over back in rough seas. My prototype is currently in 22mm copper pipe but would love to have a copy of the BOM and drawings.

One thing I would say though is that in my experience the shear pin in the prop hub is more likely to break then I have found in other engines. This is only in my experience though.
