[QUOTE="dkuster, post: 281196, member: 6507"] I have a new MK Powerdrive v2 with iPilot and the MKA-32 mounting bracket. The bracket base is a rectangular metal piece. I have a carpeted 3/4" plywood deck across gunwales at the bow of the boat that I want to mount the base to, but I have a few questions: 1) Does the centerline of the mounting bracket have to be parallel to the centerline of the boat? (Or can it be angled off to the side a bit?) 2) If it needs to be parallel to the centerline, can it be offset to one side or the other, or does it need to be directly behind the bow, i.e. on the centerline of the boat. I hope the questions are clear. I'm guessing that with a regular hand-steer TM it wouldn't matter. But I wasn't sure if the iPilot had special requirements. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
