That is Steven's OSE hardware, and yes, I have it currently on my BJ26. I am very pleased with it so far, getting runs of around 44mph on my GPS with turn fins angled on 20c lipos, very stable, no rattle.
Bab - the bolt pattern is not compatible with the steerable outdrive pattern. You will not find any hardware (Fullers, etc) that is compatible - all need at least two holes to be drilled. For this OSE hardware, the holes will need to be slightly wider apart as well as higher on the transome.
You will also have to do some work on your stuffing tube as the strut will end up very close to the trasome itself (no clearance for extra length of copper tubing or teflon liner to poke out). This makes adjusting the strut height slightly harder and limits strut height movement to about 7mm up or down from the stock tube position (more than enough for me to get the height right).
My BJ26 is at the cottage right now, but when I get a chance i'll put up some pics for you, ok?
Thx Andre again i order it this morning because I will do a new paintjob next week and i don't want make some patch or new hole after that.
SORRY for my english
BAB
My pleasure - as would be expected from OSE, this hardware is very well made and should do nicely. I look forward to hearing about your experience with this as well. Cheers,
Hey Bab...I am struggling with uploading photos...at least I put one pic up as my avatar though I doubt it's big enough to be of any use. Is there a way to put photos up without using a URL address?
Andre
Hey Bab - i added a few pics that you can actually see now in my albums on my profile. I still can't figure out how to add pics to a post, but at least you can check it out finally.

Hey Yanick - I live in Canada too (london ontario) but unless you're way north, I wouldn't expect ice on the lakes before January. So no excuse - let's see the video haha.

Hey guys i have a question. I was thinging of buying the same set up but whats needed to use it in the BJ26? It dosent look like theres much room for the flexshaft to attach to anything. How is it done?
