[QUOTE="perchjerker, post: 411848, member: 20605"] thanks Rich No way she could pull the trolling motor up. Those Minn Kota Power Drives of that vintage are known to be terrible to raise. So much so they changed the design. I had one on my Crestliner Sportfish. I hesitated getting this one but it kind of fell into my lap Thats the biggest weakness to them. There is no handle, no rope, you have to grab the head and pull straight up on it until its high enough that you have enough leverage in it to pivot it back into the stow position, then you have to yank on it to get it to lock into the mount. I did make a strap for the one I had and it made it a little easier we always go together on this boat, we really enjoy the little lakes up north It will get figured out somehow [/QUOTE]
