The front & rear casting decks are secured to the motor mounting pads via the existing bolt holes. The decks are then attached to the floor. This way I avoided any new drilled holes in my boat...
Just saw you list this for sale on Skiff Classifieds on Facebook. I started figuring out how to import one from Puerto Rico and it seems next to impossible. While researching, I stumbled across this video. It looks sweet!
Can you send me a link to your spare tire carrier? They only ones that I can find are so big and bulky I just won’t mind to go up under my bass raider exactly like yours.
I got mine from Continental Trailers. It's just a U-bolt that fits through the bolt holes on the rim. It goes arounf your trailer fram and attaches with nuts of some kind...
Can I ask what size square u-bolts did you use on your winch stand? I got the same one and can’t find the correct hardware to mount it on my trailer tongue as you have
Hey Jim...Great video and this project is exactly what i am trying to work on. I have a Pelican & was trying to figure out the best mount option...Question on the Scotty 141 mount..Does the slide bracket come with the transducer arm or do you buy the component seperately?
Hi Jim like your set up . I've been arguing with my brother about the rear courtesy light. In my state of Oklahoma the boating rules state that the rear light has to be 3 ft above the running lights. I know this is from 3 years ago I was just wondering what the rules were in your state
Good video. Thanks. I also have the bass Raider. Does your transducer mounted there w the Scotty 141 deep enough in the water? I just got one and went to mount it and it seems not deep enough. Thanks!
I watched this video like 20 times. A easier way would be to get: (8) 12 “ Galvanized Swivel Bunk Bracket Kit instead of drilling holes into the trailer frame with L brackets ( he used 4x for this build) Here he uses 4x 5 inch L brackets & 4x 8 inch swivel brackets The 12 inch galvanized swivel bunk brackets are cheaper when you buy them in a quantity of eight and you also have the vertical clearance for your center pontoons
wondering about your outboard motor. I have the suzuki 6 hp. I can run it at half throttle. it weighs just 52 pounds. would I need to build some kind of transom support, in your opinion?
The floor is attached to the vertical deck framing, which is attached to the forward & aft trolling motor mounts. I used the existing bolt holes in the mounts for the attachments. This way, no new holes were needed. Hope this helps!
