• Mounted Between the Outboard Motor and the Boat Transom.
• Designed to help minimize damage to the outboard motor and transom only when an obstruction is encountered when running at speeds under 5 M.P.H. in the forward direction.
• Momentum causes motor to deflect and rotate up to 45 degrees to slide over the obstruction.
• Drawbar spring helps the unit return the motor to its normal position while operating in reverse at low RPMs.
• Not designed to encounter obstructions while boat is being operated in the reverse direction.
• Unit is pre-drilled with the standard B.I.A. hold pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit designed for?

The CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit is designed for small boats and outboard motors used in shallow, stumpy areas. It allows the motor to slide over submerged logs or debris at speeds under 5 MPH in the forward direction, helping minimize potential damage to the outboard motor and boat transom.

What outboard motors is the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit rated for?

The CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit is rated for outboard motors up to a maximum of 130 HP. The unit is mounted between the outboard motor and the boat transom and is pre-drilled with the standard B.I.A. hole pattern.

How does the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit work when an obstruction is encountered?

When an obstruction is encountered at an appropriate low speed in the forward direction, momentum causes the motor to deflect and rotate upward by up to 45 degrees. This allows the motor to slide over the obstruction. A drawbar spring helps return the motor to its normal position while operating in reverse at low RPMs.

What are the operating restrictions for the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit?

The BA-130 is designed to help minimize damage only when an obstruction is encountered while traveling forward at speeds under 5 MPH. It is not designed to encounter obstructions while the boat is being operated in reverse.

Does the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit work with outboard motors that have clamp-on thumb screws?

For outboard motors equipped with clamps that use thumb screws, the T-H-13022 Transom Clamp Adapter is required. Verify your motor's mounting configuration before installation to determine whether this adapter is needed.

How much setback does the CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit provide?

The CMC BA-130 Breakaway Unit provides 6 inches of setback when mounted between the outboard motor and boat transom. The unit uses the standard B.I.A. hole pattern for its pre-drilled mounting holes.
