Hey all... I've been absent from the site for quite a while. I searched "21 MSX" , Stratos, etc. but found nothing. My question is , which is the preferred side to mount a kicker on, port or starboard. My concern with mounting it starboard is that my weight plus one battery and oil tank will cause a starboard list. However, port isn't much better - I have three 31 series trolling motor batteries over there. Unfortunately, the boat has the battery compartments in the rear on each side, so there's already a pile of weight back there. I appreciate any input. Thanks.

P.S. I'm up for suggestions as to the prefered method for mounting a kicker on this boat. The transom is too thick to even fit the motor over so I'll have to go with some type of bracket ... suggestions?

Anyone with any experience with the MSX ? I know there used to be a few fellows that run these.

Starboard side kicker install will balance the boat better. My port side kicker is on a panther lift so moving it is difficult. Love my boat, wish they still made them.
