I'm wanting to buy a bow-mounted sal****er trolling motor for my new
boat but I'm having a problem figuring out how the thing will actually
attach to the boat. The gunwale seems too narrow for a mount so I was
wondering whether there is some sort of mounting plate that is gonna
be needed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I kinda want to have
all my ducks in a row before I make this purchase... I'd hate to get
stuck with a $900 trolling motor that won't mount properly. Feel free
to email me - or I will keep an eye on this
group.

Your dealer and Carolina Skiff should have something thought out already for
that problem, just make sure that the know about it before buying the boat
so they can address it, if they give you the glassy stare then get a boat
rigger involved, most bigger dealers have somone on staff or on call to
address these problems or to turnkey setup a boat for a customer.
