Re: Transom mount to bow mount trolling motor
Yes -- but!!! Transom mount motors generally use a much shorter shaft than a bow mount so it is very likely you would need to change that. Next, a transom mount motor pushes the boat where a bow mount pulls the boat. While the prop is in the same orientation, the tiller handle would be pointing forward mounted on the bow. The head must therefore be rotated 180 degrees so the handle points into the boat. That's easily done. Changing the shaft is another story as the internal wiring would need to be lengthened. To mount the motor you would likely need to use a pontoon mount that was then mounted to a quick release plate.
