Installing Trolling Motor with Minn Kota quick release bracket.

- Showing how I installed my new Minn Kota Powerdrive trolling motor. Its a 55lb thrust 12 volt motor with I-Pilot. I used a Minn Kota quick release bracket MKA-21.
Yes it's a piece of crap. I took it back and said I mounted it right side up, upside down and said I looked it up and found it to be a bad product. I said I didn't want to drill it out which might make it but if it didn't you might not take it back. I can't believe Minkota would sell such a shitty product. I probably spent two hours trying to get the bars to go in correctly.
everyone is still complaining about this same issue.... still haven't fixed it
Hammer is better
I bought one and got it mounted to my motor and went to test fit it before mounting the base plate. Tried all kinds of things and if its mounted to the motor the bars don't go into the bracket. Didn't want to drill the heck out of it because I'm sure they won't take it back. I'm hoping they will take it back at Sportsmans warehouse because I ripped the box and opened all the nuts and bolts package. Sooo disappointed.
Another one putting the pin in backwards
You forgot to put the washer on before the nut on the prop
I couldn't live without I pilot now😂
That release pin needs to be tight if it wasn't real tight it would fall out
There’s three different hole patterns you chose the wrong whole pattern I have the exact same motor and bracket you have and if you follow the directions correctly it tells you which bolt pattern to go with for which trolling motor since it fits three different models you put an extra bolt in the wrong pattern you don’t have to modify anything and it slides in and out it’s the easiest thing I’ve ever used. Maybe you didn’t get the directions or just missed that part of it but you’re making people think this isn’t a good product I put it on my jon boat and it’s literally the best upgrade I’ve ever used.
i picked up a used terrova with this mount in my opinion its absolute garbage just bought the aluminum quick release it was around 60 bucks we'll see how that one works
Good video sir, no bs and a good view of the work being done. I read the instructions but sometimes it helps to see. Thanks!
Great video. That quick release pin is tight on mine too.
Your video helped me decide to get this mount for my pontoon,and i subscribed
Thanks Glenn for you sharing this helpful video.
Thanks for explaining how it works
Thank you for sharing, Mr. Glenn... that's just what I need it, a quick release bracket. My Minn Kota Powerdrive Trolling Motor, should get here this week. I had no idea wow to mounted on my Sun Tracker DLX 22! 🐟🎣
This makes my old motor look like a toy
I was wondering why the bracket wouldn’t line up in the puck! I had the same issue but no one told me that I would have to reconfigure the holes to line up with the locking bracket. Thanks for explaining that.
How do you like that bracket is it sturdy just picked up the same setup for my wc-14 lund and am hoping it doesn’t rattle around to much since the wc-14 is a bench style boat with just a small ledge at the bow
Did the quick release bracket actually come with all the hardware needed to install the bracket to the boat/trolling motor?
