[QUOTE="dirty dave, post: 433290, member: 18346"] Hooked it up on the hose Thursday night and it fired right up! I tested both of the trolling motors and they work. Removed the front transom trolling motor adapter, it was brazed on and I used a grinder and chisel to get it off. Then smoothed it down with a flap disk. I plan to relocate it to the port side. Then I removed foam that was in the front storage section. This was pretty easy to remove because it was layered in sheets instead of one big piece. Last thing I have done today is solder on new battery terminals. The old positive terminal had been broken so I went ahead and replaced both. Just have to slide the heat shrink down to finish that up.
