Electric Trolling Motor Question
Submitted by cvandyck on Thu, 02/16/2023 - 15:33
Is anyone using an electric trolling motor on a flying scot? If so, couple quesitons:
1. Recommended make & model
2. Is it something that you detach and store inside boat til needed?
3. Any comments or suggestions on range, ease of use, suitability is appreciated.

Motor mount
Take a look at this link from Flying Scot for mounting an electric motor on a scot. https://flyingscot.com/product/new-style-motor-bracket-complete/
They sell Torqueedo although any electric motor would easily push an 880# Scot.
I would worry about rain water collecting and flooding a stored motor if for any reason the drain hole got clogged.
