Outboard carry bag

[RogerLennard]

I've got a Yamaha 6hp outboard that I intend to put in the boot of my car when towing the BR20 around. Since outboards are somewhat unwieldy and prone to being scratched, I was hoping to get hold of a padded carrier for the thing. The best I've found on the internet seem to be very flimsy dustcovers. I quite fancy making my own 'bespoke' padded carrier. Does anyone have a pattern or suggestions for materials for construction please?
How do you transport your outboard, while keeping it safe?

Best regards

Roger

Consider leaving in the outboard well , stowed transversely in the retracted position , secured with a 'Motorloc' Atlantic Slot Lock 170 , with suitable padding like Force4 flat fenders above and below , suitably lashed down.

There has been previous debate whether outboard needs to be removed, kept upright or can be tilted for towing. Yamaha 6HP can be upright, tilted on either side or face down, without risk of oil leak, according to manual.
