Thanks for the vid, I'm getting ready to replace the transom mounting bracket on a MotorGiude Power Plus T44 lbs thrust motor and your video will definitely help me with the task. Thanks!
Samuel Reynolds no problem I’m glad I could help. I’ll have more videos coming out soon just trying to build up my channel and help people that love fishing like I do lol
Yeah the $16.99 issue was a huge thing that caused them lots of issues I remember everyone was trying to buy the trolling motors Bc the barcode or something was wrong nationwide.
We got lucky and had no issues we even got the bass raiders on clearance. Academy is actually having another clearance sale right now with an additional 50% off. I went earlier got a nice jacket at a steep discount.
Great video my friend. Question? I have a minnkota 30lb transom mount motor. If I buy a minnkota 48lb bow mount motor. Your video of disassembling bow mount and adding transom mount is all there is?
Hi, it should be the same but I’d call Minn Kota just to make sure the transom will fit the different size motor shaft. I called and gave my model and serial number and they told me which transom Mount to buy.
Was this a 1-1/8 shaft motor? I am trying to figure out what shaft diameter the Edge model is across that product line. I found a list online trying to tell me the Edge shafts are 1.75", but this part number appears to be for a 1-1/8 shaft. Thanks in advance!
Kelly Dan Silva hey bud thanks for watching! It should be exactly the same you’d have to unplug everything put your transom Mount in and plug everything back together
I’ve heard that it does not fit foot control because the shaft is to big. Perhaps Minn Kota sells a transom Mount with a bigger shaft width. I’d call them first to get specs on shaft width of the transom mount and your specific model.
Woody Woods thanks for watching! So what I did was call Minn Kota directly, gave them my serial number and asked them for the size of shaft my motor had. Then I just ordered that size.
Lol we did buy them all there was only 2 in stock. And believe it or not we even submitted for a $25 mail in rebate and got the $25 gift card making these free! Keep an eye out at academy when they have the additional 75% off of clearance. Thanks for watching!
@@BigMerkGee no problem, look at the price tags if it ends in .97 cents it’s on clearance and should be an additional percentage off depending on what promotion they have at the time.
It should be the same thing. Just unplug your wires put the transom mount in and plug your wires in again. Good luck let me know how it turns out for you. Thanks for watching.
@@ChildrensGiftMinistry Did this end up working for you? I am looking to do this with a foot controlled motor to make it transom mount. Im looking to do it with the MinnKota Edge. Thanks!
Very curious if you can steer the boat with the foot pedal once you go transom mount. Can anyone report if the foot petal directed steering works when a bow mount with foot pedal steering is converted to transom mount??
Jonni HammaStickz Thanks for watching! Academy has sales on clearance once or twice a year. When I bought this motor it was on clearance for 67.97 then it had an additional 75% off so it came out to 16.99. Right now they have the sale going on at all academy’s for an additional 50% off of clearance. I saw a $550 Minn Kota 55 lb thrust foot control motor going for $180. If I needed it I’d buy it but I already have a troll king so I don’t need the foot control. I didn’t see any boats on sale at my local academy this time. Go check out your local store hopefully you get some good stuff! Anything ending in .97 should be additional 50% off. Good luck.
Thank you so much i just ordered one it should be here in 3 days you are a life saver
No problem, good luck bud! Let me know if you have any questions.

Shag carpet is the classic touch! Don't drop any small screws!
I need the Bow mount y’all aren’t using anymore
Thank you!
No problem thanks for watching!
I was really hoping to turn a bow mount foot control trolling motor into a transom mount foot control trolling motor. Is it possible?
might be a dumb question but can the same happen but opposite?
How is this foot / pedal compatible? 😅
just wondering about the foot control compatible, how ?

was there a certain size bracket that you had to buy, I thought the shafts for a bow mount and transom mount were different sizes?
Woody Woods thanks for watching! So what I did was call Minn Kota directly, gave them my serial number and asked them for the size of shaft my motor had. Then I just ordered that size.
@@dgalvan529 thanks
Woody Woods no problem
Y'all should of bought every single one they had for 16 bucks!😀 That's what I call a comeup!😉

@@dgalvan529 I appreciate the heads up!😉

What did you do with the bow mounts?
I’m saving mine for when I get a bigger boat.
@@dgalvan529 dang ok I was gonna see if you wanted to sell one of the 2
No sorry bud I only have one, the other one belongs to my buddy, he’s saving his also for future boats.
What part number did you get for the transom mount?
mayagayam Hey Thanks for watching the part number is 2991815A. Let me know if you have anymore questions
DRock Fishing t
You rock, thanks 😊
mayagayam No problem.
Her DRock awesome content. I was wondering if you still have your old bow mounted bracket?
Ez Fishing thanks for watching bro and I have it stored away in case I get myself a jon boat.
Lol the baby in the backround
lol she was probably bored listening to me.
Thanks for your video! I would like to do this exact same thing only my Trolling Motor has a foot pedal, would it still be possible??? Thanks!!
It should be the same thing. Just unplug your wires put the transom mount in and plug your wires in again. Good luck let me know how it turns out for you. Thanks for watching.
@@dgalvan529 That’s what I thought, but it’s a little trickier with the cables that control the foot pedal
That’s true. Open up the head and see if it’s the same process as this one. It’s just a couple of screws.

How are you getting all this stuff so cheap? I paid $500 for a Angler 10 boat just like that?

I didn't see a foot control
It’s the same concept bud. I use the troll king foot control.
Won't work with foot control, the shaft diameter is bigger
Thanks for clearing that up. I don’t have a foot control trolling motor so I wasn’t sure if it would work or not.
B O W... Boowwwa! Not bow as in a string instrument of death... Bow as in the front of the boat
I know that now lol didn’t know that when I made the video.
Hearing him say bow 🏹 instead of bow🙇♂️ is cringe af. Plus he's lying about prices lmfao.
Lmao you’re right about the bow I’ll give you that. Not lying about the prices, they were on clearance. Thanks for watching.
