yournamehere Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Hello- I have an 1987 bass-tracker pro17..I would like to mount the trolling motor foot pedal flush to the deck like the newer boats. After a day of standing on one foot my ankle kills. I am sure this has been done before but..My question is- Is there a standard size to the trolling motor foot pedals? Trying to figure the size of the pan I will have to make..Thanks Quote
dmac14 Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 http://www.***.com/Comfortroll/descpage-COMFTR.html Take a look into this, if you dont want to buy it just look at the dimensions. Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted July 16, 2011 Super User Posted July 16, 2011 MG and MK take different sizes of holes with the MK being much larger. Quote

That would be perfect...I has to be more comfortable? Right? on second thought maybe this is a good reason to just get a new boat..Ha Quote
3dees Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 I have always moved the pedal to the side I was fishing so I never wanted one. I just bought a new boat with the well built in. can't believe how I ever managed without one. I have severe back problem and now I feel 100% better after a day on the boat. never thought I would say this but I would never have a boat without one again. Quote

A friend has a fab shop and will make me the pan, I will have it powder coated. I hope it help on the ankle..sounds like it should...Thansk for the input.. Quote
yournamehere Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 Well got the the pan made and powder coated..Came out cool.. Got about $80 into it...I have big feet so I left myself some room..Hope to try it out tomorrow Quote
Al Wolbach Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Hope you put a rainwater drain hole in it. If not I would modify before going out.........Al Quote
