Who installs electric motors


Recommended Posts

I am sure any marina would do it for you but check out the directions they are not difficult to install.   I have done 3 or 4 and the one thing I have done is make sure I have plenty of support under the bow where you mount it. Also a removable bracket might be something you want to invest in.

I've mounted a few in my day... make sure you check motor position in both the upright and stowed positions before drilling holes. If possible, mount it so the head unit can be supported along the gunnel if you are going to pound waves on the big lake.

My long shaft head unit is supported with a RAM mount when I'm not using it.
