Cameron Bell –
Installed the MKA-50 stabilizer on my Fortrex motor and noticed a big difference in stability when the motor was stowed. It stays upright and doesn’t rock. The rubber bumper protects the deck well. Easy to attach and works smoothly with the bowguard.
Charles Harris –
Good fit for my Riptide SF. The stabilizer stays in place when the motor is retracted and doesn’t interfere with deployment. The stainless steel parts feel durable and the rubber pad is effective at preventing scratches.

No issues with installation or performance. It keeps the motor from bouncing when stowed and stays clean and secure. Works perfectly with my current setup and feels solid in saltwater conditions.
