Hey all
Can any of you help me on this? I have a transom minn kota trolling motor that I would like to put in the front of the boat. Can anyone help me out? I tried with a piece of wood, it works well but could be more solid. Any adivce is appreciated. I just have a 14' aluminium v-hull
Thanks.
Putting transom trolling motor to front of boat
Bow Mount Adapter
Hi Nodie...
I made this mount for my 14 ft tinny. Problem was that there was not enough room beside the 9.9 to install the transom mount.
I used a Galvanized Dock fitting ( will not rust ) and Zinc coated hardware to attach it to the boat. The 90 degree bracket is very sturdy and has virtually no flex. Two layers of 3/4 inch plywood make up the mount plate. I used exterior verithane to finish it. I am sure you could use this idea on your bow for the transom mount motor. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have on this.
Good Luck.
