Re: 2014 Montauk 170 Mounting Trolling Motor on Bow
Posted: Sat Jun 10, 2023 11:01 am
I have a 2020 170 Montauk with the split rail. There is room in between the rails and the forward navigation lamp. I really would prefer not to drill into my boat if there is a rail mounting option for a trolling motor.
Q1: if I did have to drill [into the deck of the 170 MONTAUK at the bow to create a mount for a trolling motor] is it possible to not have to cut the rail?
To just mount [a trolling motor] on the railing and have the batteries upfront somewhere would be nice.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
