    Default trolling motor on a skiff?

    Anybody got a trolling motor on the bow of their skiff - I got a Carolina Skiff 198DLX and I ma trying to figure how I might mount a trolling motor on the bow - I have hand rail along the front deck on both sides and really do not want to remove it - just wondered if anyone else has one mounted - I am planning on getting a Minn Kota riptide with the auto pilot if I can figure how to mount it
    with my mind on crappie and crappie on my mind -
    and if ya'll see Goober later tellem I said duh huh - he'll know what ya mean!!!!!!!!

    There are several guys in our striper club that have the Carolina Skiff 21DLX boats.

    The all have Minnkota Riptides (Power Drive AP.)

    All of these guys used the new Minnkota Quick Mount and mounted the motor left of center on the bow.

    I will try to find a picture for you.

    Seems like a while back they had a TM mounting plate that they sold.
