Hi,
I've got a pontoon (22' Bennington - 2275GSI) that I'd like to install a trolling motor mount on. I've been looking at the Minnkota V2 70PD.
The question is about the quick release mount. I want to install the TM by the bow door, but we use the bow door all the time. I have a ~14" deck in front of the bow railing. Can I have the TM offset..away from the door?
My layout
I've been looking at the following brackets:
MKA-16-02 Quick Release Bracket
Stubbing toe on a sharp bracket as you are diving in does not sound like a lot of fun.
MKA-21 Quick Release Bracket
This one seems like the ticket, but I've read that many are having problems with getting the mount to lock (pin too tight) especially with carpet. Is this true or isolated cases.
Any others that I'm missing??
Thanks,
Mark
