Engine Cradle Pro Stand

The PIT-PAL PRODUCTS Engine Cradle Pro Stand (Model 162) is a heavy-duty maintenance and storage solution purpose-built for serious boaters and marine technicians who need stable, secure engine positioning during removal, rebuild, or long-term storage. Whether you're performing seasonal maintenance on an outboard, swapping powerheads, or storing an engine between seasons, this cradle delivers the rock-solid support that keeps your investment safe and your workspace organized. Anglers and boating professionals alike depend on equipment like this to protect expensive marine engines from damage while freeing up floor space and improving accessibility for repairs.

Built with industrial-grade steel construction, the Engine Cradle Pro Stand features a robust frame geometry engineered to distribute engine weight evenly and prevent tipping or shifting during work. The 29-inch-wide stance provides a low center of gravity and stable footprint, while the adjustable cradle arms accommodate a range of engine sizes and mounting configurations common to both freshwater and saltwater applications. At 37 pounds, the stand is substantial enough to handle substantial powerplants yet maneuverable enough for shop or garage use. The design minimizes vibration transfer and allows unrestricted access to engine block sides, making it ideal for detailed mechanical work, corrosion inspection, or restoration projects.

This cradle is invaluable for tournament anglers preparing rigs before competition season, commercial fishing operations managing multiple engines, and DIY boaters tackling their own outboard maintenance. The compact 29 x 9 x 29-inch footprint fits standard workshop layouts without consuming excessive real estate, making it practical for both dedicated marine shops and home garage setups. Use it to safely support engines during winterization, component replacement, or detailed inspections—keeping your powerhead secure while you work safely and efficiently around it. Compatible with most standard outboard and inboard powerhead sizes, the Engine Cradle Pro Stand is an essential addition to any serious boater's maintenance toolkit.
