Outboard Motor Mount For Dinghy Sailboat?
I am looking for a mount that will attach to where the rudder usually goes on a boat. It does not have to be very strong mount (I will just be using a trolling motor). It is just for a small dinghy sailboat (sunfish, 12.5 feet). Just something that will attach to the pins on the back of the boat.
there are several ways to mount a trolling motor to your sunfish sailboat. one is to purchase a an extra rudder cheek and mount an aluminum plate that rises above it and mount the trolling motor to the plate. you could also modify the plate into a "T" shape so that the motor can mount facing forward. see the site below for the rudder cheek part.

other considerations, having the motor on the transom may present problems, becaus of the distance from the cockpit to the transom you may find that you will either need a tiller extention for the trolling motor or you will need to site on the hull behind the cockpit. the rudder cheek mounting system will be a free swinging mount and will not allow the motor to be locked in position, if you release the trolling motor tiller the motor will steer uncontrollably.
a better idea. why not build a canoe type of motor mount that will be mounted across the back of the cockpit with the motor on one side of the boat. this will allow you to use the rudder for steerage and the motor can be locked in a straight ahead position or even used in reverse. building a canoe type motor mount is easy and low cost. it will also allow you to lower the sail and use the trolling motor.
