[QUOTE="BaitCaster, post: 166556, member: 2895"] Hey Bassin', AS you can see from my thread, I first cut two 2x4's and bolted them to the bow. There was a lot of wobble from the torque of the motor and the bolts ended up coming loose. so, I removed one of the 2x4's and added some aluminum bracing for support and it is now as solid as a rock. When I tow, I usually take the trolling motor right off. For a short trip I may leave it mounted on the bow in the "up" position. A big foot switch is basically a foot-operated on/off switch for your transom mount trolling motor. [/QUOTE]
