Default Recessed Trolling motor pedal (REVIEW)

I have one on my new Triton..nothing I was looking for but it has been better
than expected.I was always one for moving the pedal all over ther deck
depending on what or how I was fishing.I wouldn't be suprised to see the other
boat builders start to put it on their models. I'll give it A+

Can anyone share with me which boat mftgs. have as a feature on their

boats
the recesses trolling motor pedals. ? Am looking for new boat come spring

if
I can sell my current one and that seems like a sweet feature to consider.
Thanks guys/gals.


I too suffer from a lower back injury and so cannot use a trolling motor
with a high foot pedal, well, not if I want to walk the next day that is....

There are several companies that make the trays that can be cut into any
boat deck and installed with a professional appearance. I looked into
getting one of these but decided against it. Maybe for someone that doesn't
guide, it would work well, but I find that I am in different locations in
the boat on any given day.

So, for me, it's a low profile foot pedal. I might have to get one of the
wireless remote controls for my motor.

Andrew, would you care to measure the distance from the pedestal hole to
the near side of the recessed well? I've got a bad back and may just cut
one into the old girl.


Eric,
Have a look over at APBF. I've posted a pic with the dims. My boat has
two available post locations. You can tell which one I'm using. I'm just
about 6' tall.
