Transom Mount Trolling Motor on Bow Bracket
Ойын-сауық
How to make an inexpensive bracket for your transom mount trolling motor on the bow of jon boat. This can be done on metal or wood. I made an article on here - www.jtgatoring.com/transom-mo...
Trolling Motor - Motor guide VariMAX Great White 12v 55lb, 36inch shaft
Wiring Kit - amzn.to/2zavE8H - this is a similar one you would need to buy the connectors to put onto your trolling motor like I did here are the connectors - amzn.to/2tTXUYb
The batteries I use for my trolling motor are the deep cycle Interstate batteries. They have a bright green top. I will have them in upcoming videos.

Hahaha thank you for a good laugh I appreciate it Michael!!
I found two trolling motors at the dump , one that went on the back of the boat, the other was a foot control. The foot control one , the wires were cut but I fixed it to work, made a control box for it. The transom motor had a short in the control, I fixed it. Got both to work great.

Great, thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment.
Thanks for sharing. Is your bracket mounted to the metal of boat or wood? Curious how the rivnut system is holding up to the torque of the motor.

I have put more hours on this trolling motor bracket and deck than I have on my mud motor. It has held up great. The deck is bolted to the seat of the jon boat with rivnuts as the nuts and I used stainless bolts to secure the deck down to the metal seats. The trolling motor bracket is only screwed on the deck. No bolts or mounting through metal. I just put the bracket on top of the deck and screwed it down with a couple of screws. No play or wiggle. Still solid.
Great video!

Good luck! Before taking it out on the water, I would test it out without screwing it in and make sure it will reach the normal water line on your boat. Let me know how it goes +sgtkrazykramer!
