Hi everyone,
I have a Volvo 3.0. and sx leg I am removing from my 4+2. Has anyone any suggestions the best place to advertise it. I will of course put it on here but any other sites you can think of would be usefull.
Thanks

That’ll reduce your fuel mortgage! You’ll be higher in the water too!
I’d try the Facebook Shetland groups and look if there’s a Volvo one.
Good luck with the sale, what are you replacing with?

The boat has 2 platforms on the transom so I will make a bracket that goes between them for an outboard. Well that's the plan anyway

That's the sort of bracket that I would like but I can't find one or who makes them. My platforms are fiberglass ones that were fitted at the factory. Yours Looks nice and clean.

Yes I agree. I’m not a fan of the fibreglass ones, they just don’t seem to look quite as good in my opinion - and they are prone to filling up with water. I was looking at another owners 4+2 of the same age as mine and his had the fibreglass one. Interestingly he also had holes drilled for mounting one like mine. Maybe yours does too.
