[QUOTE="woodscavenger, post: 412097, member: 20978"] I'm wet behind the ears but have yet to get the boat in the water. It has a 25hp O/B and I bought a transom mount 40# electric trolling motor. Pulled the trolling motor out of the box and realize the transom space it a bit more limited than anticipated. The width across the back is limited by the triangular braces in the corner and the two rear handles to lift and carry the boat. Besides the obvious....make it a bow mount troller....what are my options? Do I create a side extension outrigger for the trolling motor? Can I move the O/B off to one side and make more room? How with that effect the driveability of the boat? [/QUOTE]
