[QUOTE="Scott F, post: 457362, member: 23059"] I've used rivnuts in my job in the past but I would never trust them with the amount of stress that a trolling motor would put on them. In a short period of time, they will loosen up and pull out. If it were me, I'd buy a Minn Kota quick release bracket. Drill new mounting holes in the lower half of the bracket that will not go into the gunnel, mount the motor to the upper half and you should be good. [/QUOTE]
