Good not perfect
I installed the transom mount per the directions and one of the telescoping rod thumb screw mounts cracked when tighten by hand. Be care full not to tighten these screws too much. All other hardware worked as advertised.

Works like a charm
If you have opposable thumbs and half a brain you can mount and use this quickly and easily. Just put it on the boat before you inflate then tighten all the screws afterwards. BAM! you're in business. I don't understand what the bad reviews are about. It's easy, it works, and it's solid and durable. No more rowing! Get your Sevylor mobile! I've got a Fish Hunter 360 and a Minn Kota 50# motor. I'm flyin' around the lake now!

Works okay, hard to attach, a little overpriced
I am using this motor mount on a Sevylor Fish Ranger FT280 raft. It's very difficult to insert the mount posts into the designated slots on the raft, I end up spending 15-20 minutes of setup time fighting with it. Instead of relying on the friction, I wish the mount just slipped on and locked down via separate clamps. Once it's attached, it works fine as a mount - I am using a Minn Kota Endura 40, and I've had no problems with it over the past 2 years.

Piece of junk
I bought this motor mount to use on Sevylor Fish Hunter 360 inflatable boat and Minn Kota Endura motor (36 pounds of thrust). First, the plastic plugs that were at the end of steel pipes broke and fell out when I inserted the bent ends of the pipes into the holes in the boat (near oars). Because the plugs broke, it was not possible to put them back. Next, the transom board was too low and it was not possible to install motor on it - the motor screws were interfering with the handle on the boat. I even went to Home Depot, bought a bigger plywood board, made holes it in and finally attached the motor. Finally, I tried it on the water. When in full thrust the motor noticeably bends the steel pipes holding the transom board. At any attempt to row the bent ends of the pipes come out of the holes near the oar mounts and the whole system gets lose. It is not possible to insert them back without completely removing the transom board with the motor, i.e. it cannot be done on the water. The pipes and plastic brackets used to adjust the length of the pipes seem very fragile, however they did not break yet. I wonder what would happen if someone uses it with more powerful gas motor...
