    17.5ft Malibu Tyee Kicker Size

    Interesting. I agree there is more than enough room. My current kicker is mounted right on the transom however, I feel it sits too low and when there is two people in the back corner it goes low in the water and bogs down. I think I want a small straight transom mount so the kicker sits a few...

Our favorite fish to eat are ling cod so we spent a long time targeting them. We fished 12oz swim jigs primarily tipped with salmon bellies and did...

    Kicker for my 17.5 DE

    Thanks Profisher. A new 9.9 is only 17lbs heavier so I don’t think it should be a huge difference. I may install a kicker bracket also.
