[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 264307, member: 7791"] I don't think the 58' 10hp was designed for remote use. I have seen the 18hp with remote but I don't remember ever seeing a 10hp of that year being setup for remote. But with enough time, ingenuity and money you can do anything though : ) Most remotes have electric start also and I don't think in 58' that was an option in the 10hp, but I could be wrong? As for the trolling motor, I am not sure what year your minnkota 65 is but I highly doubt you can set it up for foot pedal operation. The logistics in converting it would not be worth it most likely anyway. You could maybe spin the head around so that it can be operated from the bow though. I have seen a lot of people do that.
