So I purchased a new to me campion 185 a last year and am getting it ready for fishing this year. I used it last year with just the main motor for trolling, a 2006 merc 115 optimax. This year I would like to run over to trasher rock and would like to have my kicker with me just in case, I went to mount it, the transom has a cut out for it but the transom is too thick, see pictures. The bracket opening on the kicker is 2.5” while the transom thickness is almost the same. I think if I removed the screw tightners it would fit but then how so you secure it, not a great idea. Plus I also use the motor for my small lake boat so I need the screws. I don’t really want to drill a kicker mount. Has anybody run into this sort of problem and have any advice for a resolution? Can you get a mount with a bigger opening, my kicker is a 2006 Yamaha 2 stroke. Thanks
