The fact that the owner is using a "transom saver" to support the engine?

Oh wait! I've got it .....

Not enough stripes on the American Flag painted on the engine cover.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!  Hyperacme has a good eye.

No problem with bow lift. Transom must be solid concrete.

Yes, down here in Louisiana you'll see many $50,000 bass rigs and a Z71 in the yard of a trailer that should be burned for public safety.

Well, I thought the double jack plate was obvious, the pic is labeled as such. I thought you were looking for something not so obvious.  ;D

Ahhh, crud. I forgot to name it something now obvious.  Can honestly say I've never seen that done before, even down here with some of these backwoods swamp folk.

I think 76bayflite should still get credit for identifying the graphic on the engine cover. That one at least had some challenge to it.  ;)
