Bow Mount a Trolling Motor on a Center Console That Has Railing?
This is the second question regarding mounting a trolling motor at the
bow of a center console.I have looked around with many center consoles, and I notice that
almost all of them have railing in the bow area. I am wondering whether
this will become a problem if I try to mount a trolling motor at the
bow. There is only around 1.5-ft space between the gunwhale and the
railing. Will the trolling motor be able to clear the railing when I
try to lower the trolling motor to the water? Any idea? Thanks in advance for any info. Jay Chan |

| I don't think my MinnKota's arc is that high. I'll measure it tonight. |

| It may very well interfere. You might have to remove a portion of the
rail, and move the supports, or add supports. |

| I just measured my Great White and it's 2'7" at it's highest point in
the travel arc. Depending on where the rail is, it might clear if you put the motor in
the right angle and position. |
