how's it going - today I want to do a real simple video and just show you guys how to use a transom mount trolling motor on the bow it's simple it takes just a couple minutes to do and anyways let's get into it alright guys so like I said extremely easy super simple the only tool you're going to need for this is just a Philips screwdriver and basically what you're going to do here is there's one screw and the head of the trolling motor right there and it runs all the way through there and on the other side there's a knot so the only thing you're going to do is with this screw right here you're just going to loosen that and you're going to stick your finger in the hole on the other side I just hold the nut so it don't fall off and it fell off all right so we got the nut out now what you're going to do you might be able to pop it right out probably have to stick your screwdriver in the other end just give it a little push until enough of the screws showing that you can just pull it out by hand all right so we're going to pull this off and all you're going to do is you're going to take the head of the motor and you're just going to turn it 180 degrees without moving anything else and you're just going to kind of line the whole back up and now you're going to do the same thing just in Reverse you're going to stick the bolts on the other end now just give the head of the motor just a little shake now put your nut in on this end tighten it up right that's all there is to it now we're just going to take this off and we're going to go up to the front of the boat and mount up right now we have it mounted up front I'm super easy to do and now loosen this up and it works exactly the same one thing to be mindful of is a deaf this is only a 30 inch shaft for this little johnboat it it does just fine there's plenty of room there's probably eight inches from the trolling motor to the boat so it'll work in this application but any bigger of a boat with this sized trolling motor probably isn't going to probably isn't going to work out quite the way you want it to but for this specific application it works good and anyways thanks for watching
