    Default Jon Boat Project..."bout to wrap it up'....pics


    All I like is a little trim work and mounting the sonar. Should finish up next week. Maybe. This re-work oughta do it for the rest of me life. I hope anyway. Hope to have the boat in water and sinking condos next week. I have plenty of condos in the front yard waiting on me to sink um....ha...Just need a little weather relief here.... I am running way behind on sinking stuff this year....

    Default Great Work

    Tom, that is some great work. I like how that set up is coming together. I noticed you have a hot foot or big foot switch hooked up. I have seen a few of these and was wondering what they were used for. ALso, I thought they would not work on a foot control motor. Can you give me some insight?

    Thanks,

    Default Big Foot Switch - How did you hook up?

    Boat looks great! All you need now is some fish slime on it! I second that - I'd like to put one of those on my trolling motor. How did you hook it up? Did you splice it into the hot wire coming into your foot control?

    I have a bad foot, left part of it in Southeast Asia 35 years ago...ha...I have a hand steering stick mounted to the foot control so I can steer by hand. Use big foot button to turn motor on/off instead of the built in pedal switch. It is hooked up in parallel (bridged across) the existing switch in the foot pedal. I can "till" with hand or foot and use the other foot for the "throttle". Great relief for sore feet and cramping legs.....
