I've had a 54 pound thrust transom mounted Motor Guide on my johnboat for two years now and I'm very happy with it. It really pushes my 12 footer around in a hurry.

I think you can get a bow mount. I really like the OMCs if you can find one. They are simple.


Is that a late 50s evinrude? Old school.

you should be able to mount the troller up front. gonna take up one whole side and flip to the other, but it should fit.
