[QUOTE="snatch, post: 368300, member: 14914"] I know most of you freshwater guys like a foot petal for controlling your trolling motor, most saltwater inshore guys like myself like hand control bow mounts, the first thing I did with my new/used jon boat was have this piece welded on it's on the bow starboard side, it works great, the cost for a transom troller is far less than a foot petal mount.. I don't lose any space like you would with a bow mount. I don't notice any slide because it's off to the side either IMO. It's a 2x4 piece of aluminum don't bolt it, WELD it on ( my welder charged me $40 including the aluminum) it allows me to take the troller off when I want to use a boat cover, in your case maybe for winter to store it in a garage without much hassle. I will get a shot of the front later [/QUOTE]
