f. Once the Mount is in position, determine which bolt
pattern to use. The bolt pattern selected will depend
on the deck space available on your boat. Minn Kota

deck of the boat using a 9/32" Drill Bit on the
marked locations.

the Base Extrusion sits between the second and
third set of bolts according to the mounting pattern
selected. Double-check that it can close around the
Mount when stowed.
