Hey everyone, just joined the forum. Bought a 14ft jon boat and I want to put a Trolling Motor at the bow.
Unfortunately, the boat is not stable enough to stand all the way at the bow in order to reach the TM handle.
My question is; can I mount a trolling motor on the side of the boat? Any suggestions? Or, am I up a certain "creek". I would like to upgrade to a foot-controlled TM in the future, but I have to make due for now.
Please see image: it's a 3d render of my boat, it will give you an idea of the layout. Very narrow beam (48" I believe). I created this 3d boat in order to properly plan-out future modifications.
Thanks in advance!
