Mounting Considerations
When selecting a mounting location, observe these considerations.
• You must install the motor on the bow of your boat.
• You should install the mount so the deployed motor is as close to the centerline of the boat as possible.
• You must install the mount with the top of the cutout overhanging the gunwale of the boat. The U shape
should extend over the side of the boat.
• The motor secures to the deck of the boat using bolts, so you must have room to secure the mount from the
underside using washers and nuts.
• The motor must have clearance to move from the deployed to the stowed position and back again, so the
installation location must be clear of obstacles.
• Verify that the deck is strong enough for the weight and force of the trolling motor. Use a backing plate or
reinforce the boat if needed.
