[QUOTE="fishfast41, post: 137823, member: 1571"] I built a mount like that for my boats first incarnation. I removed the factory mount from the transom style motor and built one from wood and aluminum angle. What I was trying to do was copy the mounts I had seen on bow troll motors. It worked, but was a pain to use. I'll be using the same motor this time, but with a much simpler homemade mount. I don't have any pics of it, dang it. If I were doing it again, I'd keep the factory mount and design around it.Looks to me like you got the simple part figured out ,though, please post how well it works for you. By the way, my motor is a Sears DieHard. Minnkota made them for Sears. Darn good motor, took everything I threw at it for 15 years. I'll be reusing it on this build. [/QUOTE]
