Well got the duck blind off the boat. Season was good. Been looking at the removable trolling motor bracket that motor guide sells. Any of you goobers or geezers use them? Are they worth a poot. Kinda tired of drilling holes in my boat to re-mount my trolling after duck season. Thank ya kindly.
It's crappie time!!! :-)

You talking about one of those plates that stay on the boat? And the mount mounted on the Trolling motor slides off? I have one of those but a Power Drive M/K
Yep. Stays on the boat
I have a better way, and it's way less money. Call me. I'll fix ya up for free.Quote:

It is for bow mount TM. gonna try rivnuts
Toggler brand toggle bolts from lowes !!
