Got the trolling motor, fish finder, and lights on this week. Mounted a 2x3 with two 3/8" bolts and tee nuts. Took it out saturday night, and everything works great.

I really can't. I took her out for a little ride the other day, and she loved every bit of it. I let her steer the trolling motor, and she smiled and laughed the whole time, it was great.

I bought this same battery and it works great. https://www.amazon.com/Sealed-Lead-Battery-Piranha-Finder/dp/B006LO9XHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1394708585&sr=8-1&keywords=fish+finder+battery

So, I'm going tomorrow to buy a 1542. My question is: should i install a wooden transom on the boat or do I just attach my motor(9.9) straight to the aluminum?

Thanks a lot, thats reassuring. I originally got the bluefin bc it was cheap, small, and i thought that most of the time i would be fishing by myself, but now it seems as though i have somebody with me everytime i go out. So I wanna get something a little more two person friendly while still...

Hi this is my first post here. I'm currently using a 1974 12' bluefin v-hull with a yamaha 9.9. I am thinking about buying a tracker 1542 lw and i have a few questions. Though I do plan on getting a bigger motor eventually, right now I am going to keep the 9.9. Will the 9.9 get the tracker on...
