Thread: Trolling motor swap out

Currently running a 24v I-Pilot and want to be able to fairly quickly swap it out for a foot control cable type trolling motor.

How hard to do it. I have the Minn Kota quick plate that the I-pilot fits into. I am sure someone here does this or has done it.

In windy conditions it is almost impossible to hold the boat in position with the I-Pilot and I saw guys making it look easy with a foot control cable steer TM's today.

I would buy another Humminbird 2d/DI transducer to mount on the foot controlled one

Thinking something like this 82lb 60" shaft as i am running a 1825 Lund
