How to lock the outboard plate for shipping so it wont swing

[PROS]

Removed Yamaha 130hp 2stroke 2006 from my boat.

I need to lay it on pallet next.

Outboard is able to move/swing from the transom attachment plate (N432) still.
If I lay it on pallet like this, it will swing and fall to side.
I seem to be missing something.

How can I lock this plate or pivot point so outboard wont swing?

Tie it down with a couple of ratchet straps?

Nail gun and some pine. Make some bracing. The outboard won't move an inch!

[PROS]

I used ratchet straps to tie it down when I removed the outboard last week and put it on couple of tyres with pine support.
Its sold now so new buyer is coming to pick it up today, I am concerned about they safely transferring it at the back of their ute.

The new 200hp I got as a replacement come in a commercial crate, it had a V type support at the leg, I guess that is whats stopping it from swinging. I thought there would be a way to lock up pivot points for shipping.

I will get some bracing made up for them for transfer.

Thanks for your help.
