What size bracket and kicker motor for a 2002 Trophy 1802

[jeffwish]

I will be out in the atlantic ocean in the winter and I need to install a kicker motor and bracket, any suggestions or people which have the same boat with a kicker. I'm having the kicker for a spare to get me in ,, in case my 125 Merc salwater gets sick..(it hasnt failed me yet):joyous:
