Turned the hunting boat into a fishing boat.
 

I have been braking parts on my trolling motor bracket for hunting season since I've bought my boat. So I ordered a quick release bracket. It wasn't that hard to install onky took about a half hour. It's going to make pulling the trolling motor on and off a lot easier. Attachment 65126Attachment 65127

You'll love that. That's what I have. Makes for a great dual rig

Yea I have to agree with you Warren. It's going to make things a lot easier in the winter time for hunting. It wasn't that bad to install, the only thing not too long into the install i figured out that these mounts were not made for boats with a lot of bracing under the front deck. That's what the two non factory counter sunk holes are for just for a lil extra support. You know how us coonasses are we have to over enginer everything. But all in all it was a nice and easy add on

Yea the way mine was set up I had to tap the hole because I didn't have access to the underside. Still worked great

It's for sure a good product

This was the easy part . Running wires .. Not so much

I just have a battery that under my front deck so the wires werent a issue for me

Anyone use the MotorGuide Quick release? I'm looking to mount a trolling motor on my hunting boat when I get home. Could I use the MinnKota bracket on the MG trolling motor?

I don't think that it would fit. I would guess that it is about the same to install as the Minn Kota

Yea I don't think the mk mount will fit mg motor. There are several different models just for the different mk motors. Not a very universal product like you'd think

I took my boat last summer to Southside and had him add this to my boat...use a receiver hitch lock to keep it from getting stolen. Easy to take on and off when I go frogging or crabbing.

Thanks, I'll look for the MG specific mount.

That's a neat idea.

I thought so too when I saw it...the plate under the trolling motor insert is a winch mount that slips in when necessary (hopefully never)

I got the Motor Guide Quick release and put a trolling motor on my boat. I really like this motor mounted on my boat this way. Had to build a spacer but I think I came out nice. Went ahead and installed a Guest two bank charger and a plug.

That's a clean install. What kind of boat you have that PD on??

Thanks. An Excel FX4.

Why did you mount it straight like that instead of angled on the front? Just curious

Mount
 

Doesn't get in the way while frogging. Lol

Yep and I don't want the trolling motor head hanging over the side. Trees will take that thing out.

What kind of speeds are you getting out of that rig u have?
