    Default Tracker Panfish and wireless trolling motor


    Have a 16' Tracker Panfish w/stick steer. Operating the trolling
    motor foot pedal is very awkward. Interested to know if
    anyone out there has mounted a wireless trolling motor on
    a Panfish. Current motor is a motor guide w/36" shaft, most
    wireless are 42" and up. Send photo if you have.

    I have a WarEagle stick steer. Put the Terrova on mine. Could not run the foot pedal motor that came with mine. Kills your legs. Wouldn't take anything for my motor.

    The longer shaft won't be an issue except it might cause the TM head to be in your way to some extent. You can get a authorized repair shop to cut the shaft down and it won't void the warranty based on comments read here. The remote/wireless TM is very nice, I've got a Terrova on my PT175 and won't go back. LOL

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
