Better Day,
While looking for prices for new TM I saw a suggestion for trolling motors parts. Since only the nose cone was broken I wondered if I could only replace it and be done. When I clicked on the suggested link it took me to a site called "trolling motor parts". There I was able to purchase the whole lower motor for $109 as compared to $500 for a complete system. So just a heads up to anyone needing parts to repair "ANY" TM check them out. BTW I have no affiliation or interest in the company and I'm only passing this on for he benefit of fellow boaters.

ps: the motor fit perfect and we're back on the water.
