[QUOTE="ccm, post: 375100, member: 13447"] Just got to be a little bit more careful with it clamped on the bow. It will also move your boat along better with it on the bow. A good bow mount is ideal but is not always budget friendly. & from the pic you posted it looks like it will be deep enough. I cant remember where I saw it ( I'll try to find a pic of for you ) A guy made a homemade shock absorbing mount for a transom mount motor using two pieces of 2x4, 2 door hinges, & 2 heavy duty springs. The idea was if the trolling motor hit something the spring would take the impact & the motor would fold Under & the springs would bring everything back to a 90 degree angle.
