So much for my trolling motor!! - 03/07/16 09:22 PM

I wish I had taken pics before I started. I bought a Minn Kota Terrova with I-pilot link and was planning on getting a Humminbird 12" Helix! So I got started and found out my wiring would not work because mine was a 12 volt trolling motor. I ordered 6 gauge tinned wire for the new unit!! Then I found out that my trolling motor mount would not work! So to make a long story short I ordered all new wiring for my boat and new gauges, plus I made all new dash,trolling motor mount and switch plate, switch panels,battery tray and a few other things out of aluminum!!
So now I have a one hundred percent aluminum boat! Oh I almost forgot! I also added hydraulic steering and new wheel and I'm painting the topside of the boat. I know I have forgotten a lot and I will tell you later about the motor!! lol!
