Is there any easy way to convert a Foot control to hand control? Other than buy a new one. I have some Medical problems so my feet are bum and cant control the foot way. I cant see any ez way. I bought the Big foot extension but cant see that it would work. Any Ideas. or anyone want to buy a foot control? so I can buy a hand. It is a 3 year old minkota that came with my Tracker Avalanche.

I'm pretty sure I remember somebody saying Bob Ridgeway at Southwestern Parts can do it.

Yes, You can convert a hand controlled to a foot controlled. Sell the one you got, then take that money and buy a foot controlled.
Otherwise you will spend 3x the money it is worth trying to convert it.

I believe he is asking to convert from a foot controlled to a hand controlled, because he has bad feet. But, the answer is still the same. Sell your foot contolled motor and buy a hand controlled one. Hand controlled motors are considerably cheaper, so you will only come out of pocket a little, if at all. Good luck and sorry to hear about your foot.
