It will work just fine in salt water. Just be sure to rinse it off with fresh water after every use.

The manual doesn't have a lot of useful information other than a parts schematic.

I've been using one for 10 years and works great - until the other day when my son forgot to lift it out of the water before getting underway. Mine has a unique bracket called a KotaStow that MinnKota says they don't have the parts available anymore.

Does anyone know where a used bracket might be available...
