I put a Minn Kota on the back of my kayak this year too. What I did different (and it's even simpler) is leave the lever on the shaft, squeeze it once, and wrap a strip of velcro around it to override the lock "feature".
Good idea...I initially used zip ties to hold the lever lock but decide to remove it at the end...both work. Much luck to you and may your days be full of tight lines
