I would recommend tying a safety rope from under the head of the motor to the carrying handle of canoe. If the board would break or motor hits something and comes lose, you won't lose your motor.
I wanted the wing nuts on top, so I could easily reach them to tighten with just some fishing pliers without reaching underneath. You could put them the other way especially if this was going to stay in place for a long time.
