Post Kicker motor on 1846GTB
I have a 1846GTB w/ huntdeck & 35GTR. I currently am using a trolling motor with my bowfishing setup. I'm thinking about adding a kicker motor but don't know how it will work. I have come up with an idea for the mount. Is anyone using a kicker motor on a mud boat and if so....post up some pics.

Thanks

Why not just use your motor

If you are using your GTR for the kicker and your boat is not setup as a dedicated bowfishing rig, please post some pics of it. I would like to see how you have everything setup.

I like it DDM. I could shed an extra battery and trolling motor if I had something like that. Do you have throttle control or do you just let it idle? Is that just a linear actuator doing the steering?

I put a 9.9 on next to my MB for limb lining. It is much easier to handle than the MB. And it has reverse which you really need for limb lining. Kinda ghetto. But it works
