This New Patent Pending
Advanced True Transom Saver Replacement
will revolutionize the way you haul your boat.
Thanks for your interest in the new Lock-n-Haul® outboard motor and steering system transport stabilization system.
This patent pending unit has been designed to give years of trouble free and dependable service. You can have confidence that the mounting, bushings and lower unit of your outboard are no longer taking a beating when you travel over the rough roads that you encounter literally everywhere you go.
This is not your dad’s traditional “transom saver” which was designed to actually support the weight of your outboard while traveling. Today’s outboards are always loaded onto the hydraulic “tilt and trim” piston, and the transoms in modern boats are built to handle the weight and the torque from powerful 300hp engines and rough water.
The fact is that the old outdated "transom saver" actually does more harm than good. The motor is now captive by the hydraulic tilt system and can't move away from the shock of the road transfer through the old style device. The lower unit in effect is therefore taking repeated jolts as you trailer over rough roads with bumps and holes.
Kinetic energy is introduced into your system with the movement (shaking) of the outboard motor bolted to your transom. This energy can only be dissipated through friction, and friction can only develop between moving objects (motor rigging).
Unless your outboard motor is stabilized completely so that NO movement occurs, the kinetic energy will dissipate where the motor moves (the motors tilt and steering pivots), causing stress and wear on the entire system, including the transom.
The Lock-n-Haul® is the first and only universal fit, advanced true transom saver device.
The device positively locks out ALL of the movement of the motor by stabilizing both the steering and tilt pivots and secures the motor in travel position, while completely isolating the lower unit from the trailer and eliminating the shock that is transferred from the road, to the trailer, to the lower unit.
Lock-n-Haul® is tough, small, lightweight and easy to carry in the boat.
Lock-n-Haul®
Advanced transom saver replacement
Easy to install, you just adjust the spacing of the upper and lower "bumpers" to fit your particular outboard. After the one time adjustment "fitting" of the device, it will perform correctly with the outboard centered and loaded evenly with the hydraulics.
The transom saver device will create a single unit from your boat and motor, and will eliminate the harmful effects of movement of the outboard while trailering.
This revolutionary new universal design will fit most outboard makes and sizes from the smallest to the largest, on any boat, and will be the last transom saver you will ever need.
Customer Reviews
"After spending way too much time trying to find a support for my Mercury 115 Optimax and trying to make something myself, I came across the Lock-n-Haul. This is one of those products that is simple yet works perfectly. It took about 2 minutes to adjust for my application and has worked flawlessly ever since."
Mike Shea - Long Beach, California
"Jim, nice product.. Have been using with my Ranger 520 and Yamaha 225 HPDI for a couple of months. I used the larger white one sold by one of your competitors for about a year but didn't like how it would not clear the mounting location on a Yamaha. Your product solves this issue."
Doug Denton - Clayton, North Carolina
"Thank you for the upgrades to my Lock-n-Haul and the clear concise instructions on how to install them. This unit works like a charm and does just what it was designed to do. I am very happy with your product and the upgrades that were sent free of charge. Good luck to you, Jim and those who provided input to make this product even a greater investment."
Merritt Obreiter - Toledo, Ohio
"Jim, being an owner of Ranger Z-Series Boats with their built in Jack Plates and then along with the extra 8” plate I have mounted I love your Lock-n-Haul. The typical transom saver just does not work well with the length required to get down to the trailer & then where do you store it when removed. Your system is not only easy to mount providing protection, but when I remove it I can store it anywhere. Love the size & the way it works on my Etec 250 HO!!! Thanks for making a great & user friendly product."
Rob Jasper - Pantego, Texas
"I think the Lock-n-Haul is an excellent design. With its small size but very strong structure its easy to handle and does not take up hardly any space. I broke two transom savers before switching the the Lock n Haul and have not had one issue with and its nice that my lower unit is no longer taking all of the road shock from the trailer."
Brent Sauble - Willow Park, Texas
"I purchased the Lock-n-Haul about four weeks ago. Since then I have towed the boat over 1500 miles and the lock-n-haul works great. I don't have to worry about the motor or steering components and it's so much easier to use than the old motor toter products available. Great product and I will continue to recommend it to others."
Ryan Phillips - Columbia, South Carolina
"The Lock-n-Haul is a well thought out and functional device. I was a little sceptical about how it "locks" the engine to boat but after watching the engine through the rear view mirror while towing, I understood. When hitting bumps or holes in the road and boat bounces, the engine doesn't move at all in relation to the boat as with the standard transom saver. It's "locked" in place and doesn't vibrate, wobble, or wiggle. And, that's a good thing."
Darrell Lehmann - Richardson, Texas
"The Lock-n-Haul works perfectly on all outboards. It is a very simple, functional device that completely stabilizes the motor."
Gary Dobyns - Yuba City, California
"The best thing I can say about the Lock-N-Haul – the boat and motor become ONE! There is absolutely no movement of my motor when stowed with the Lock-N-Haul. That is, of course, unless the boat is moving!"
Mike Kernan - Dallas, Texas
"Finally a great product to secure my Yamaha. Does the job in seconds....just as advertised."
Spiro Stamos - Cupertino, California
"I am not sure what product you are using, but you need to check out the custom transom saver product from "Lock-n-Haul"! I picked up one of these and love it! It is very simple to put on and remove and it will not damage your motor or boat. I will never go back to a traditional transom saver again. This unit also absorbs all of the shock and vibration from normal travel instead of having your lower unit risk potential damage from traditional transom savers! Check out.http//:www.locknhaul.com"
Scott Gordon - Grapevine, Texas
"I absolutely LOVE using the Lock-N-Haul. It makes my HPDI sit still on these bumpy roads here in Western North Carolina. No more pulling over to straighten the motor up, like with the old style transom saver."
Mike Stewart - Asheville, North Carolina
"This was by far one of the best purchases I have made for my boat. My engine would move from side to side even with the transom saver that came with my boat. It was also a hassle having to worry about storing the old transom saver inside my Yukon. The Lock-n-Haul is compact enough I can store it in one of the compartments in the boat. The roads are not the most forgiving in some parts of Texas but with this product you can rest assured your engine will stay in place and absorb anything the road brings you. Purchase this in confidence."
Robbie Milam - Lewisville, Texas
"I saw your booth at the Arlington Convention Center back in January. I told you then that I didn't have a boat, but that I might be buying a friend one. That's what this is for. The Lock-n-Haul beats the heck out of all of the other transom savers on the market as far as ease of use and sturdiness."
Lyndon Johnson - Fort Worth, Texas
"I have been using the Lock-N-Haul device for over 2 years now and love it! It is so convenient, light weight and easy to stow that I couldn't imagine going back to the old style transom saver. I also like the fact that going down the road I'm not watching my engine bouncing all over the place wearing out my bushings and loosening my transom bolts. I'm a sold customer!"
Andy Caldwell - Plantersville, Texas
"Not only is the lock-n-haul effective and does what it claims to do, but the convenience of putting it on and taking it off is worth the price alone. I am glad I am not pulling and tugging on my old transom saver to release it from my lower unit anymore as I would get road grime and grease all over my hands. I like how it stores right in my boat."
Rob Romaguera - Mansfield, Texas
"Only had the Lock-n-Haul for short while but seems to be working fine. The price was great compared to the other brands."
Dan Lee -Yuba City, California
"The Lock-n-Haul device is the best piece of equipment I've used to lock my motor down for traveling. It's light and small enough to fit in the back compartment of my boat while fishing. In the past, I've had to use 3 & 4 foot long motor toters which are long & bulky and I had to always store these in my vehicle because they could fit in any of my boat's compartments. The motor toters also scar your lower unit and removes the paint. I'm a guide on Lake Fork and everyone who has seen my Lock-n-Haul device has been impressed."
Marcel Bryson - Lake Fork, Texas
