Bass Pro Shops Crappie Masters Television welcomes a new sponsor M-YWEDGE.

The days of the inconvenient, out-of-date, Outboard Motor Transom Saver is over for good, thanks to the arrival of the innovative new motor support, m-ywedge™!

Thanks to advances in boat-building technology over the last decade, modern transoms are created to withstand torque.  That’s why the m-ywedge™ is so long overdue.  It’s only eight inches long, so it fits in any boat storage compartment, unlike the old style transom saver.  It works with manual or hydraulic jack plates, and regular or long shaft models.  It’s virtually indestructible as well as UV and saltwater resistant.  It won’t harm the trailer, outboard or boat and perhaps most importantly, it completely eliminates the need to lean underneath the boat for installation, nothing to hold on to.

Manufactured in the United States of America with a one-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects, the m-ywedge™ is going to take the boating world by storm.  Safe, convenient, and easy to use and store, the m-ywedge™ is the answer to every outboard boater’s needs.
