If you don't want to go gas, why not get a larger trolling motor? if your current tm doesn't have spot lock and all the other nice features that go with having gps built in, you might get more bang for your buck spending on that vs getting a gas outboard. more power, more features, no gas...

So I've read people routing wires under the bottom of a grizzly, and read people using a pvc pipe along the gunnel. obviously i would rather route them underneath from an aesthetic perspective, how bad is the risk really (usually when people ask that the answer is already obvious, but asking...

Hmm... these are great points i didn't consider. yeah, trying to take a bolt out and having the rivnut spin would be, uh, less than optimal... i may have to reconsider my thinking on them. when you had this happen, @thill , what did you do to get them out, in case it does happen to me at...

This was my first time working with them - I’d never even heard of rivet nuts before now. What do you mean by limited success? Just hard to work with? They failed after you installed them? I’m thinking about using them for more than just the initial front plates, but don’t want to if they’re...

I got this tool for $38. I did read that you can do it a diy way, but $38 didn't seem to bad to save me some time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081GDRTXP?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

First, let me just say that rivet nuts rock! I went ahead and replaced the rivets on the front plates on my deck with rivet nuts in prep for installing the trolling motor and electronics. I made mistakes on a couple of bolts, but after that it was great. I do need to touch up the mistakes...

too late now, already ordered the tm and dakota battery. the lowest thrust the ulterra comes with is 90lbs, and that's if you run it on a 24' battery. i got a 36, which will mean it has 115. if it's too much, i'll have to make sure not to run it full speed.

@Azdesert So how has the ulterra on your boat worked out for you? How do you have it mounted? Do you think, for loading the boat, that you could use the remote on it to slowly bring it to the trailer, than auto stow once you have it close enough? Same for unloading, could you push it...

Sorry, I'm here. And I'm a real person - actually I'm a technology consultant, so I *could* create a bot, but unfortunately, you guys are stuck with me lol. Thx for all the replied to my original post! So went in a different direction. @Billy H i was concerned about what you said, total...

So i'm ordering a crestliner storm 1700 without motor or electronics. i'm thinking about having an elco 20hp motor put on it, a trolling motor, and fishfinder from one of the big brands. This is my first "bass" boat, so lots i don't know (i've had several pleasure boats). In case you're...
