[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 262097, member: 5461"] It can be a bit overwhelming at first, but don't be afraid to grab the angle grinder or sawzall and get hack'n. It looks like you could grind off the rivets on the bow piece and yank it out of there. You could then cut a piece of plywood or aluminum to fit and bolt it back on using the same rivet holes. Another option would be to leave the current bow piece where it is (after all, it looks very stout!) and use aluminum angle pieces and SS bolts to attach a bow mount trolling motor mounting plate directly to the current bow plate .... use the aluminum angle pieces strategically to level out the mounting plate.
