Many of you (like myself) have gone to one of the motor-drive steering trolling motors for their anchoring ability. If you are having an issue with the mounting of these units or are having damage occur due to contact while launching, loading or docking I would like to offer up the following possible solution. http://texasfishingforum.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/11664834#Post11664834I don't know how many of you visit that section so I posted it up here as well. Mods - if you need to move or delete, I understand. I was just trying to share with fellow Crappie fishermen because I know we use these trolling motors and some may have issues with theirs.

That looks pretty sweet! Looks like you busted the plastic trim off yours hitting the bow roller too! Broke mine off 2nd trip. Hafta check it out sometime.

I have seen it. It's cool.
I have an xi5, but don't need it because of how much higher my bow is. I have probably been with him 20 times before he built that and every time loading was a pain due to that thing hitting the rollers. Good job Nitro.

I got my Liftsavertmount in 1 day after ordering it and Ron has been great in assistance for whatever questions I had for it. I haven't been able to mount it yet due to ordering some sheet non skid that's going on the bow before the tmotor and mount. So far I'm pleased with the purchase.

Very nice Ron  I went out with Txmedic the other day, loved how the XI5 worked  Wish my Ulterra would stay that close, only in high winds does it hold tight Only had issues with it hitting the trailer one time while unloading at the steep ramp on Holly Lake
