Default trolling motor extention handle..

What is the best trolling motor extention handle that does its job but doesn't get in the way too much when in the stored position? What is the best momentary switch for a trolling motor? I'm tired of bending down to work the tm.

Default T M

as for the handle ,Mine came w/ one so no answer for that. You can wire in a on / off push button foot switch to the deck .
All you have to do is break the hot wire. available anywhere they sell boating accessories and very easy to install.
Just set the speed you want and use the foot switch to turn on and off.

I know they sell an extension handle at Academy that I've seen alot of people put on their rigs. Also the foot switch eman is talking about is very nice, my wife's uncle has that on his.

This is the handle I use. It's a push pull motion to turn instead of a side motion to turn. Handle folds down along the side of the T/M.

the "big foot" button peddel is super nice you can kick it on for good or drift and just tap it to stay on your drift
