    ...and/or AGM batteries will not supply full voltage as the charge depletes, in fact once they go below 50% of charge, the voltage drops to the point the trolling motor would be inoperable. Thanks for the compliments, all I need is for this damn wind to die down so I can go out and enjoy it!

    Helm Master Ex Joystick install

    Another point to add - if you fish shallow water you might think twice about the joystick. The shifting in and out of gears is still a metal-on-metal sound that will likely scare any fish around you. Sure, deep water doesn't matter but shallow water does. The GPS trolling motor is deadly silent.

    Helm Master Ex Joystick install

    I have a Fisherman 236 with an 84" Rhodan trolling motor on the bow. It's been an absolute game changer. I removed the head compartement from inside the console and put a single 36V trolling motor in it's place. Again, the trolling motor has been an absolute game changer. We never use the anchor...

    Helm Master Ex Joystick install

    I plan to use the joystick mostly for the stern fishpoint and drift. I didn't want to place a trolling motor and add more weight to the boat.

    ...the capabilities that come with the joystick. Depending on the fishing those features might be better or worse than a bow mounted trolling motor. Perhaps somebody has a disability that makes it easier, or a boating partner that is less proficient. Expensive for sure but boating for most...

    Windless on a 180 sportsman?

    I have seen several photos, none with much detail, where owners have hinged a portion of their rail to allow installation of trolling motors. You might be able to do something similar. Before purchase, you should confirm that the trolling motor you choose doesn't need an external 3-axis-type...

    228G Seafarer Kicker motor mounting/steering solutions

    Just bought a 1993 228G seafarer with a 2005 225 Yamaha outboard. Looking to add a 9.9 Hp kicker motor on the back for trolling. I don't want to put the hours on the big engine. Plus, I don't think it would idle down enough to go 1.5 to 2.5 MPH for Walleye fishing. I have used drift bags...

    ...with any vehicles alternator, but not all so it's important to check that before spending big $$$ on the wrong kind.
