@@bradleychilders811 You're awesome, captain.Thank you for your awesome reply👍⚓️😉
Hi Capt, I am in the process of installing a bow mount trolling motor on a pilot house and I’m glad I came across this video. Thanks for you methodical and detailed appoach to the complete installation. I’m a huge fan of you videos. Thanks and God Bless.
You're awesome, buddy, and thank you for being part of my channel and if I can help in any way. Please let me know. Thanks for watching and always navigate safe.
Just installed a 75lb thrust on my bass boat few weeks ago. Amazing the time it can take and the tools that are needed, but I'm retired so time is no problem. You did an excellent very pro job and I will be checking out your other videos. Your filming, audio, and telling what you are doing is spot on!!!
thanks Cap and now that you have retired you have great time to enjoy your Minn Kota I'm sure you have worked hard all your life, me im still working but have some time to make videos.
thank you for being a viewer of my channel and always Navigate safe Cao.
Love how you made the installation look so smooth with the boat, thats a professional at work!
Thanks nature Observer 👍👍👍
Captain you are the man. Next season I want mine installed exactly like yours. Did I say exactly. Yeah I said exactly. Love it. Can’t wait to see the batteries installed. I wish you all the best with your new Min Kota
lol awesome cap. wait for you to get yours cap
Wow Capt., you have made that boat yours...always admire how you don’t let anything stop you from getting your boat more and more custom to your needs. You got skills brotha’! God bless you and your family!
Thanks 👍 you Hector there was alot of thinking involved and im not that smart lol, thanks for watching Hector
His The Best Video for Boat Trip and DIY..so natural and easy going ..
Great job, can’t wait to see it in action. Your helper played a big role too.
Thanks 👍 Marcoas
Gotta say this one best installations I’ve seen on a trolling motor. Great work. Really good investment with that good of and installation.
Wow, thanks! Cap. i really appreciate it , it was hard work but it paid of👍👍⚓
Wow Cap! Every time you take up one of these DIY projects I get nervous! But you prove me wrong every time. Nice Job!
Glad to hear it! but i was very scare my self lol
All I can say is WOW!! Once again you’ve pulled it off! Can’t wait to see that thing in action. Awesome job Capt!
Thank you Johnny for your great feedback captain
@@OutOnTheReef you should check out Kipawa props for your Minnkota....not that expensive and worth it. Saves on Your batteries.....
@@josephrichard750 thanks cap sure will
Came out great, you thought of everything!
Tha ks cap it took me about a month engineering this install ,now you my viewers dont have to think that much, Thanks for watching captain.
Capt. I just bought a Minn Kota 112lb thrust with 87" shaft. I have a 2004 Pro Line 26ft. center console. I'm going to mount it in the Bow on the pulpit. You inspire a lot of us. Keep it up, and if you are ever in the area of Tierra Verde give us a shout. Stay safe!
Hello can and wow 87 thats the biggest cap and you will love it and if you need lithium batteries check out this ones they are awesome
amzn.to/3oUTZJY
I had this ones over 2 years and love them, and thanks for the invite cap you are awesome and hope installation goes smoothly 👍👍👍
That was about the only place on deck where you could mount it. Looks sharp.
yes cap. it fit there exactly not a inch to the right or left it was incredible fit
At first I was like NO! NO! Ta loco!!! Then i realized you’re not some handy banker, you must do things like this for a living lol, and I realized it’s not as invasive an install. But your still loco man! Love it!!
LOL Captain you had me laughing thanks for the humor
Your skill set did not happen by accident, I’ve been a contractor for many years with many employees and the level of experience you’re showing did not come from watching a video.
Great install!
Thank you Captain I really appreciate your positive feedback I do a lot of things so I guess I have to just a little bit of knowledge of some Machinery stuff but I don't do this for a living and thank you for watching my video and commenting captain means a lot👍👍
Very clean installation! You'll be filling the cooler while I'm still trying to get anchored in the right place :-)
You are so right Captain because sometimes it takes me about an hour to get to a good anchor position and then the current changes me after 20 minutes which is really aggravating but now everything changes😉👍👍
i'm so pleased to have found ths video, because i was quiet afraid for installing a minnkota on my boat. It's a great job ,very well explained . i think i'm going to get one.
the main thing i love on your installing, it's that you didn't cut the tube (i don't know how you call it) upon the minnkota .
something that was holding me back in my décision. People around me ,told me that i have to cut it, and i didn't want to do.
nice video, thanks, i will see electric installation now.
glad you like it and is called bow rail , i did not want to cut mine because they are expensive , now if you want to do this installation you have to make sure your bow rail is not that short, mine is a tall one. thanks for watching
@@OutOnTheReef thank you for answering
@@gerrod1795 anytime cap.
Navigate safe 👍👍🏝
Hey skipper, great video! Any chance you can post the list of the materials needed for the installation. I’m looking to do the same installation on my Parker.
That is what I wanted for my boat , which I no longer posses . Just awesome motor enjoy. Looking forward to your future postings.
Thanks 👍 cap and sorry that you did not have one for your boat
That's legit! Perfect!! Thank you for sharing your skills!
My pleasure! Shanez thanks for watching cap.
Nice clean job cap! I was wondering how to mount on my c-dory pilot house now I’m getting ideas thanks
Yes Jon you have a lot of thinking and measurements to do because everybody is different so hopefully you can install it on yours with no problems captain at least now you have an idea how is it mine.
And thanks for watching
Hello Capt, great video, and thanks for posting. I purchased a piece of 1/2 inch aluminum plate from your list above a couple weeks ago. Super fast delivery.
anytime cap. and i saw that purchase and they gave me a commission 4.5% thanks so much every little helps my channel a lot cap. and i hope it worked out for your installation 👍👍👍
Your attention to detail is inspiring... I think I probably would have just used a whole tube of 5200 and called it a day 😂 your setup looks wonderful though.
thanks cap. i tried my best , thanks for watching my install cap.
You put a lot of thought into that. Well done. That would have been an easily cost $1,000 install at a marina and would not have been as good
Very true cap, there nothing like working hard on your boat it's very gratifying👍👍
Thanks cap.
Nice job capitan, as usual you pay attention details, you plan ahead before you do your work and it paid off, looks very professional. Hope you get the batteries soon so you can install them and go for a trip.
Thank you Captain and yes as soon as I get everything ready I'll be heading out there to try this new piece of equipment which I think is going to be awesome
Hi Capt.... Beautiful installation! There are a lot of people who say you can't install a trolling motor on the boat because of the rail being in the way; you have proved it can done, and done well! I look forward to seeing the battery installation....
Thank you Andrew and yes it could be done but it took me days and days of thinking and then later more thinking and more thinking and just like the Apollo 13 they made it home because of their thinking LOL and thank you for watching captain
its the ones with auto deploy that makes it tricky with the rails.
@@Fj4LiFe23 yes that is very true that's why I did not choose that one with the auto deploy
@@OutOnTheReef hi do you know of the rhodan trolling motors deploy the same way? I want to install mine under the bow rail as well.
@@davidk7849 im not sure cap. I have not looked at that brand
Really nice install cap. You are a true craftsman for sure.
Thanks Fred you're awesome
Great job very professional your attention to fit and finish is top notch
Thank you Larry I really appreciate your positive feedback captain
Nice job Capt. I can’t wait to see it in action!
Thank you Tony and I will keep you updated on the future videos thank you for watching
Nice install Capt. Very detailed and well done! Looking forward to the next video.
Thank you Captain and the next electrical will coming soon thanks for watching
Wow that came out very nice you can tell you put a lot of thought into it looks professional
Thank you Captain I did the best I could next video I'll show you the electrical and thank you for watching
That came out great ! Nice job!
Thank you! cap. i will show you later the rest of the electrical work, have a great night.
Looks very nice Capt. It will be something much easier than deploying and retrieving an anchor. We love ours...
i agree this will be my #1 way to anchor from now on⚓👍
Very nice job Captain. You're going to absolutely love that! i pilots are the best marine invention since the live well. Can't wait to see the next wiring video. Make sure you install an inline fuse. Seems some people don't for some reason.!?
Awesome suggestion captain and yes a 60 amp fuse is require thanks for the heads up Captain and I'll keep you updated on the next video👍👍
Looks awesome buddy that spot hold is going to be the bee's knees I got to figure out how to put one on my boat
yes now you have some ideas cap. thanks for watching
Enjoyed the practical approach and install. Like another commenter I have a 22ft Stabi so i look forward to seeing it perform offshore and in the shallows. If you can get good footage of the set up working in current and wind qhile providing your feedback that will be worth watching.
Most definitely Captain I will keep you updated every time I use the unit and thank you for watching
Thanks Captain for give us that kind of video we enjoy and also we learn a lot Beautiful video . Once again thanks captain have a nice days👍👍
Thank you Angel and thank you for being part of my town you're awesome
Nice... You are more than Engineer👍
Thank you Captain really appreciate your support👍👍👍
Nice job Capt, looking forward to seeing it in action. Navigate Safe! 👍
Thank you Scott for watching my video
hi Captain i really lost the wording to describe your work can't wait to see the trail .stay and navigate safe
Thanks cap you are awesome 😉👍👍👍
Excellent installation, I am concerned about some of the rough weather and conditions that you encounter when out to sea. You may may need to see about further securing the shaft during your crossings. Just a thought. Awesome content by the way!
Thank you Captain and I already got a mount that secures the schacht I will show it to you in a future video soon thank you for the heads up
I’m thinking about getting one but after this video I think I’m gonna hold off until the technology gets better. Our fishing grounds are 50 to 80 miles offshore and I think it will just not last these conditions. Also one more thing to trip on.
The word Perfect was used 16 times in this video 😁
Good job captain. I'm inspired to install one on my Stabicraft.
I know, he made Awesome jealous .... LOL
lol cap😁
Lol!
Nice JOB brother. Can’t wait to see it in action. GOD bless. Be safe out there.
Thanks Saul I will keep you updated
Nice very thought out video . Thanks for sharing!
Anytime cap. Thanks
Captain watching you do your install looks very good.
Wow, thank you but it was a lot of thinking and im not that smart lol
very nice and solid installation ! well done !!!
Glad you liked it! thanks cap.
Newport trolling motor very nice well constructed 55 pound thrust. Fits nice on my inflatable raft. It's lite weight enough to pickup transport it. Shipped fast.
👍⚓️and you dont need 3 batteries
What a great video. I'm installing a similar motor, on a not so similar boat, but this video explains and shows everything in so much detail that ideas for my install are flying. Thanks man!
Awesome, thank you! cap. and hope your install comes out great ,and thanks for watching my channel,👍👍⚓
Omg we saw you pass by nova rd today! Big fan love the new minn Kota. Keep the good work watch all the vids 👍
That is awesome I would have loved to seen you , I use Noah road all the time to go to Port Canaveral is the best road to cut through .
Soon you'll see the video on how the Minn Kota work at Port Canaveral captain and thank you for being an awesome viewer off my channel and also I'm your neighbor LOL
Not many people would drill into their boat… wow good design great project..
Yes very true Captain but you have to make it your own by modifying and making some holes LOL thanks for watching
Nice install bro! I added one to my Sailfish 220 this year. Awesome tool to have.
Yes I believe this is going to be awesome and cats and have you have any mechanical errors with it
@@OutOnTheReef twice the remote has lost its connection to it and I had to re-link them out on the water.
@@oseadfishing3646 wow sorry to hear that cap, hope you gat it solved now
Nicely done, thanks for the idea
Anytime cap. Hope your installation is a success 👍👍🛥⚓️
I think a water channel between the plate and the edge of the hull would keep water from pooling on the corner, also since you are doing saltwater on a permanent mount, I would advise you to retreat the aluminum with alodine and zinc chromate, paint alone will not be enough corrosion protection. I treat aluminum parts for aircraft that work the oil wells in the gulf. Great video and nice boat.
Me and you are thinking the same I just put some Marine adhesive there and it looks great captain and thank you for the heads up really appreciate it
Nice work. Very clean install .
A tips .
Have a can of W40 near ,The 5200 can be cleaned very easy if any mess
Thanks for the tip! i did not know that cap , thanks for the head up👍⚓
Nice Installation. I like it very much. Well done. Cap.. I came across a product called Zipwake. Installed on my boat.. its incredible the difference vs trimtabs and its fully automated.
I never heard of it but I'll look it up when I have time thanks for the sharing it with me Captain
Good job mate, looking fwd to the final water test. 🍺🍺🍺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thank you buddy and thank you for watching my channel soon I'll keep you updated with the next video
I'm always looking forward to your RUclips.
This time is also wonderful
I also have a ship.
I especially referred to it when installing the raymarine autopilot.
thank you!
Next time…
I want to know how to anchor.
I want to see it on your RUclips.
I am looking forward to it.
Thank you Captain and thank you for watching my channel and in the next video I'll show you how I connect the batteries and later on the next video I'll show you hard work thanks for watching captain
Amazing work...congrats!!!
Thanks a lot! Cap.
Great videos ! This may have already suggested but backing plates or at least fender washers added to the under side of deck to spread the torque to avoid cracking the fiberglass.
That's a great idea! Scot thanks for your awesome suggestion
I use marine plywood cut to the shape I need and use it to support/distribute the pressure and works well and cheap
Very slick installation. Your video was great! I have a similar installation for the exact same motor and shaft length. I don’t know if I can rotate it under the bow rail to stow so I was considering notching the rail. Thank you.
Yes cap if dont have a bow rail over 22 inches high it will not work but cutting the bow rail is another option cap. Thanks for watching ⚓️
Wow! That was a very clean install. I've been looking for a video like this as I'm considering doing the same thing. This gives me great confidence and detailed instruction on how to go about it. You've got a new subscriber, can't wait to see what else you have on the channel. Can you show how you setup the battery bank and went about the wiring? Also, where did you get the start board and aluminium plate? Great video!
I will show you how to wire everything and I have the links of every item that I used in this videos on the description below captain I hope it helps you on your installation and welcome on board my channel👍👍
Saludos me alegran tanto tus videos capitan lo sigo diciendo usted es un caballo.

Tremenda pincha brother te quedaste vacío con eso quedó salvajemente bacan calculado al detalle quiero instalar uno te boy a contratar para el trabajo jajajajja👍👍👍👍
jajaja si te ago un apointment ya , gracias saludos cap y buenas noche
Out On The Reef gracias buenas noches 👍👍
nice work !!!!! looks awesome
Thanks a lot! Ed i had over a month on thinking how i was going to do this installation, hope this video helps others because there was nothing in RUclips that could help me to do my type of installation, thanks for watching cap.
Suggestions; Next time...use 1/4 or 5/16" plate (unless you get free metal). Put a radius on all the exposed square corners and use a router and a radius bit to round off the long edges. Better to not paint, just let the aluminum weather to gray and whiten it with Aluminum Brightener now and then. Avoid using silicone as it can promote corrosion, better to use a polyurethane sealer. Lube all your stainless hardware with "Super TefGel" to guarantee you can take things apart in the future.
very great tips thanks captain👍👍👌⚓
Nice install. I have looked at many of these installs with rails. wanting to install one on mine with rails uncut.
thanks Tim and i have the high bow rail it would not work with the low bow rail cap , i only have inches to spare, what's the Hight on your bow rail cap
Very well done!
you are awesome thanks for watching Cap.👍⚓
Good job Captain.
thank you Phillip⚓👍
Very nice! Thanks for posting this video!
I rig boats for a living, and I have a few suggestions that you may appreciate...
1) Run a 3/8" round-over router bit around the edges to make it smooth, rounded, and much easier on feet. (and really custom looking, too)
2) After sanding and cleaning, use Rustoleum Aluminum Primer, from H. Depot or Lowes first. It makes the paint stick much more permanently to aluminum.
3) Paint before bolting it down makes it easier and faster.
4) You should put a circle of Loctite sealer around each bolt hole on the top, bottom, and between the starboard and the aluminum to prevent leaks. A thin bead of loctite around the perimeter of the aluminum and the starboard will prevent corrosion on the bottom of the aluminum, and creeping moisture coming in from the sides. Capillary action is powerful. Water will find a way in, if not sealed..
5) A backing plate or even very large fender washers under the fiberglass would support it stronger, especially when trailering and in rough seas. Cheap insurance from the fiberglass cracking.
You can always do some or all of this stuff at another time, if you ever re-do the work.
But again, very nice! Thanks for the video!
Wow Captain those are very awesome suggestion especially the one around where both plates meet you're right if water goes to the dare don't start doing some damage what Imma do between the plexiglass starboard and the aluminum I will put a beat-up Marine adhesive there.
Thanks so much for your great input Captain is very appreciative
My thoughts also were to put some meat underneath in the anchor locker. PL some 3/4” marine grade plywood to that and let it set up-that’s a forever deal with no second guessing...
@@johnm5714, I agree, a full plywood backer is cheap insurance and easy to do. Wrap some carpet around it, if you don't like the looks of it. Bouncing on the road when trailering is extremely stressful. A backer plate will take away any worries..
@@OutOnTheReef, You are very welcome. It's best to loosen the bolts, and lift up the layers to put the sealer between them. It looks better, and won't ever come out. Might as well use all the sealer you have, as it goes bad once you open it.
Again, thanks for the great video!
Great job!
Thanks buddy
Calidad de trabajo como siempre Capitan....... felicitaciones.........
muchas gracias cap . tube que pensar mucho, creo que se me cayo el pelo espera yo no tengo pelo soy calvo😂
Out On The Reef jajaja te quedo buenisimo..... tremenda idea..... looking forward to the next video.....
Hey captain how is the rust oleum paint holding n the aluminum after two years? Very nice installation. Que bueno somos machete😁
Very nice job!
Thank you very much! Cap.
Nada mejor que hacer el trabajo uno capitan, es una satifaccion super. Las reparaciones de mi bote las e hecho yo y cuando salga pal agua me voy a sentir super saber que lo hice. Le quedo de show. No se si usted a intentado pero la pintura rustoleum 2x trabaja mejor y no se escascara como la rustoleum regular. Deseoso por ver el motoren accion capitan! Dios le bendiga capitan.
Muchas gracias y no savia que abia una mejor, gracias por recomendarmela cap.
Saludos de Florida👋
Saludos desde Dunnellon FL capitan
I bought two of these one for front one for rear for jon boat used about five times now no problems
Hello Jonny this units are awesome cap. Navigate safe cap
Good deal. Only thing is I would make a support for the head. Shaft is very long and in rough seas that head migh vibrate up and down, so I would make a base or something where that head can rest on while at rough seas. 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Captain thank you for the great suggestion you are awesome and yes I already have a part for this I just need to install it and soon you'll see it on a video what part I chose for this and thank you for looking out for me Captain you're awesome
I just had a 1/2 in aluminum plate fail. The machine shop sold me cast aluminum. Said it was some high grade stuff. Dropped an 80 in rhodan in the drink. Your plate looks good
Sorry to hear about your plate Captain I know it's very frustrating after you do everything to have a part failure.
And my aluminum plate I got it Amazon it was $74 and a hat gray reviews that's why I rather buy my stuff at Amazon because of the reviews of consumers before me.
Thanks for your comment captain
Cast aluminum is brittle... BUMMER! Always use rolled or forged aluminum if it will face stress, bending or impact, but I guess you know that now. Sorry to hear about that loss!
Capt Crooked nice Capt your going under the rail. I was thinking the auto up and over but looks good much better than the other one park ooh I can’t say it
you should make it a kit for 300 to 500 $. I sure a lot of guys would like it JT 🇺🇸🇺🇸🐠🐟🎣🛥🌴🌴😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
thats a awesome idea because i placed the link in the discription below so people can get the same parts i purchased but i see your great point cap. thanks
very talented!!! bravoo
thanks buddy and was a lot of work😉⚓👍
Perfection!
Thanks Rick you're awesome👍
perfect.
Super Job!!
thanks buddy
Great install. The only thing I would have done differently is chamfer the holes in the fiberglass to prevent spider cracks in the future.
Great idea cap. thanks👍
Nice install. I have the same motor my instructions said to use a different nut in salt water use.
You mean the nut that holds the propeller?
Yes much bigger than yours supposed to be an anode.
@@riggs5849 yes but Minn Kota discontinued that part they say they no longer need it that they're engineers saw that was not necessary so they discontinued
Good work😁👍🏻👍🏻
Do Andy and thank you for watching my installation captain
...that should do the job, the fish better beware..lol...stay safe and enjoy.
LOL yes the fish better beware because I'm coming straight on the spot and thanks for watching captain
nice job

Outstanding ❤
thanks cap.👍⚓
Looks like it came from factory with trolling motor!!
Thanks cap.😉👍👍👍
I have the same minnkota and you will want to get a trolling motor support. Because the shaft is so long the head unit can hit the deck when stowed and travelling in rough seas. Ram mounts as well as anglers pal make them and can be purchased on amazon. I use the anglers pal so I don’t have to install anything on the motor. It is a must to save the motor.
Awesome suggestion captain and yes I already got one I will be installing it soon thank you for the heads up cap .
In the meantime, you can run a bungee cord from the top of the motor around the railing to support it.
@@thilltony3362 I already purchased amount that you going to love when you see it
I don’t like how it sticks out past the rub rail. Hopefully it doesn’t become a problem for you when you’re docking up against pilings. Minnkota makes a quick release mount that’s very nice and easy to install you could have use that on top of your riser plates this would’ve made it so that you could remove the Minnkota anytime you want for storage or security or if you just want to move it out of the way during docking procedures.
very true cap but i want this trolling motor all the time with me because i will use it on every trip
but thanks for the great suggestion cap.
Just when I think it can't get any better! Do you lay in bed at night and think...... OK What can I do next! LOL! Nice job as always! Can't wait to see it in action! Thanks for sharing! ⚓😎👍
LOL Captain Rick you know me too well and yes I am thinking at night how am I going to make this crooked Pilot House better LOL
Having added an 82lb (24 volt) Minn Kota Riptide with Co-pilot/Autopilot to my Walkaround, you may encounter issues with battery usage (you will need to install another battery charger and get quality AGM batteries that can take a beating and will not Off-gas while charging like Lead Acid batteries). Your boat, as does mine, sits much higher above the water, and creates a large provide for the wind and waves to push and change the angel of the boat. It is going to require a lot of trolling motor adjustment (left/right) to stay anchored on a single location in moderately windy days.
I also had many, many boards replaced on my Minn kota Riptide. The trolling motor just starts turning (except when on Autopilot) and that appears to be an indication that the board it bad.
I hope it works out for you
Good luck
Awesome suggestions captain and yes the 82 lb Works harder and waste more battery because it has less power when you go to 36 volts I believe for being a bigger motor you waste less battery I think you're on the power.
I just released my battery is deletion in charger can you please look at this video on my channel the recent one and let me know if this equipment is a good one and also the batteries they are AGM
Here is my new video of the battery and changer.
Please let me know when you think
ruclips.net/video/FMehIlI3-SQ/видео.html
I like how you did it. I have a similar boat and have been trying to figure out how to mount it without cutting the bow rail and without having it stick out to far off the boat. I only wonder why you didn’t paint the aluminum plate before final install? I would’ve taken the time to have it powder coated so it would hold up better then paint.
Yes that would have been great but I didn't have time for it I was in a very tight schedule but it came out good and if I ever need to paint it again I just do the same thing again didn't take that much time is very simple.
And if you plan to do your boat if it's similar to mine you have to make sure your bow rail is as high as mine or higher to make it work this way if it's shorter it would not work cap.
@@OutOnTheReef what is the hight of your bow rail where you install the minn kota? Thanks and nice video!
otro tremendo proyecto de show!!! el minnkota te servira para docking en bimini cuando estas solo?
Puede ayudar pero no creo que mucho ,ahora si hay cooriente en bimini si puedo quedarme permanente sin moverme, es tremendo cap
Tremendo ingeniero! You should start your own boat company!
Maybe one day! gracias Cap. por tu exelente support.
Cuando llegan las baterías?
@@eddyg220 ya me llegaron ahora estoy travajando en installarlas y acer el video para que lo puedas ver, es un proseso installarlas porque lo instalare al medio del varco y tengo que asegurarlas bastante. Pronto are el video cap. 👍
Look forward to seeing the video. El Antares 11 que ordené viene con 2 x 300 ho Mercury outboards. Lo ordené con el Mercury JPO (joystick). Eso tiene el Skyhook feature que es similar a lo que vas hacer con tu trolling motor. It is a beautiful feature. Te mando foto cuando llegue.
@@eddyg220 si porfavor me encantaria verlo y skyhook es similar pero mucho mejor es profecional pero sale bien caro cap.
Lo compraste nwevo?
Looks real nice, I'm hoping to do something similar on my 25 Boston whaler Outrage, kind of tricky though being foam filled..
I'd probably put bigger chamfers or radii on the mounting plates, just not to jamb my toes.. ouch.. my luck I'd jamb my toe and fall off the boat from the excruciating pain..
I saw on Amazon minn Kota makes a quick removal mounting plate.. something you can add if you think it may be useful..
Is this the same boat you had before without the pilot house, and you just added the pilot house?
Cheers!
the boat i had before was the Yamaha 190 FSH and i trade it for the Crooked PilotHouse Boat
and what i did with my installation was that i study and plan for a month and then i made my move, i recommend to study your installation that way there is no mistakes especially after opening holes cap. thanks for the great suggestion and for watching my channel and hope you have a great installation 👍⚓
Hi captain, been following your videos for a while and enjoy them all. Your videos help me / inspire me to make similar mods upgrades to my pilothouse. What is the shaft length on your Minn Kota? Regards from Wales
Hello cap. And that is awesome that my videos has motivated you to go out to the waters cap. And the shaft is 72 inch and 112 thrust 36 volts
Hope this helps cap.
Navigate safe ⚓️
Great Install, I would like to do this on my Boston Whaler with a bow rail. Would you mine telling me the clearance between your mounting deck and under side of bow rail. Mine measures 16 inches.
thanks for watching cap, and my bow clearance is 21 inches i think yours is not going to work do to it will be hard to diploid, sorry cap
