Looking for a Southwind pylon for an 18 footer. 1975 if it makes a difference. I would take anything that would work . I have a machine shop next door neighbor that can make anything. Sooooo a good description or blueprint would be great.

The first picture is a pylon out of a Southward 20.  The second two is one out of a 1986 Martinique. (ring and finger have been cut off)

Thanks Scott,
As I remember the one in my 20 foot SW was straight. I was thinking the one in an 18 foot would have to be bent?
However, this brings up another interesting point, in my older, 75SW, why would I not want to build a motor frame like they show in the Martinique?
Does anyone have any input on that?

You can buy this motor cradle if you want it.

Finally figured out the photos again. Note how this one is bent at the bottom to clear the seat?
At any rate, I believe this is what I need and I’m still looking for. This picture is from Facebook and I can’t seem to get this guy to sell.

Is that a Mustang or a Martinique?

That pylon would be too short.

The guy on Facebook says he’s putting out a 76 SW 18. That may not be the picture.
(sometimes I get confused)
I will double check. Thanks for that advice I hadn’t thought about the height.
