Puttin' a TM on the cuddy was a no-brainer ... in stored position, it's over space that's already taken up, leavin' both sides of bow-deck accessible ... w/TM down and slider closed, opens room for casting from bow ...



The plug-in is CLOSE to the motor-base in the vent-cap ... plugs are SS ... plug-in is vertical, so won't catch/hold water ...

Parrot makes a point ... if this thing's in the wrong position, it can be a MAJOR PIA ;) ...

The one on mine is a 72lb thrust ... just after I got mine, the 80lb came out, which is what's on the other one...both 24 volt ... better start thinkin' about on-board battery charger ;) ...

wow RAP that's kinda small for a V20...how does it do? This is a 70 and is the smallest I would go on this boat. I would prefer an 84 to 101 but the price was right...so..:wink:

PH I don't know man cause this is the 3x steering and they don't carry it nemore. The regular 70 with a shorter shaft is 650 though.

Oh....Im getting it for free because I have severals buddies at Academy. That's was setup before ever getting the motor. If I would have had to buy one it wouldn't have been worth it. they want like 400 bones just for the mounts!!! :shock: Anyways my manager buddy there is getting one from a Minn Kota rep.

on that note...I called him this morning. He said he is 99% sure the freeze over the winter done it. Once paint freezes and thaws he said its worthless. Messes up the chemical composition. :-/
