    Bow mount trolling motor on a fisherman 180

    Ok, now I have come across a new problem. The 180 is so small that all the voids were filled with spray insulation. Original plan was to mount an outlet in the anchor locker and run the battery cable back to the center console. With the way the bow is constructed, I don't think I will be able...

    Bow mount trolling motor on a fisherman 180

    Thanks to your robalo post, it gave me an idea. I ordered half inch 6061 aluminum plate to be able to mount further out. Will see how it works out.

    I want to mount a Bow Mount Garmin Force Krakken to my GW Fisherman 180 (primarily used for fishing the Cesapeake Bay). I am thinking to put the battery in the center console and to install a plug at the bow for the trolling motor. Does anyone have photos of a bow mount trolling motor on a...
