I bought an old aluminum fishing boat that has a tiller type Minn Kota 4WD motor mounted on the bow with the use of a angle iron clamp on contraption.
It's difficult to raise and lower but managable but I have to run it in reverse, which has only 3 speeds, to make the boat go forward.
I have two questions :
--- Will it harm the motor to run it constantly in reverse if I needed it to get home ?
--- Would it be possible to swap a couple of wires to use the 5 forward speeds to go forward.
