bassman97504 Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 I have a small 15 ft fiberglass boat that I want to put a bow mount trolling motor on. The front deck has about 18 1/2 inches of area to put the trolling motor mount. I'm wondering if that is enough space for a Minn Kota edge foot control trolling motor. Is that enough room on the front deck to mount that type of mounting bracket or am I going to have to use a Minn Kota Powerdrive? I really want he edge, if possible, so I hope someone has some good tips to make that possible. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 19, 2011 Global Moderator Posted June 19, 2011 Looks like plenty of room to me. I have a 70lb Maxxum on my boat and I don't know if the area it's mounted on is any bigger than that. I think it only has 6 mounting screw holding it on but it's never budged through all the stumps and rocks it's banged into. Quote

bassman97504 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Posted June 19, 2011 Thanks guys for the info. I'm really glad I asked cause I almost bought the powerdrive and think I may have been disappointed. Quote
endless Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Do you got any pics of the full boat? I'm interested in seeing the whole boat. Never seen a deck like that before. What kind of boat is it? Quote
