[QUOTE="raven174us, post: 141660, member: 1877"] This difference is the transom mount is mounted in the back of the boat on the transom and is hand controlled. The bow mount is mounted in the front of the boat and is foot controlled. If you plan on fishing from the front of the boat (bow) that will be what you need. The bigger the trolling motor the better. But a small one will still troll a 14 foot around. I have a 27lbs thrust trolling motor on my 14' and I use it with my boat loaded down with gear, cooler, livewell, and 2 people. With a bigger motor you will not have to use the higher speeds to get around therefor you will use less battery power. The only dumb questions asked are the ones not asked at all. :wink: [/QUOTE]
