Hello everyone. I am in the process of installing a Minn Kota quick release for my trolling motor. The trolling motor is a 24v 70lb thrust riptide. I was wondering if it would be ok to use 4 rubber isolator bolts to mount the bracket to the bow. I don't think I would be able to reach back that far to through bolt it!!
The only problem using the rubber isolator bolts is that the rubber "t' piece on top would raise the small block of the composite quick release about 1/4-1/2". This would make it so that when the trolling motor is locked in to the bracket it wouldn't be sitting flush on the bow. Seems like that would be an issue.
