trollin motor mount on a kayak?
Anyone have any ideas? dont really have many options, but im needing something like now. Would be nice to have a mud boat, but that aint happening right now.
Re: trollin motor mount on a kayak?
Could you shape a 2x4 to the contour of the top of the kayak, and bolt it on from the inside?
That's kinda what I have thought about on my bobcat boat. But, with a kayak paddle, I can scat with little work. So I figured that the 2x4 would just add weight I don't need.

im thinking, 2x4 on the underside (its a sit in), bolted to a pieced of angle that sits on top with a 2x4 mounted to the angle iron. Im going close to a mile one way!

Re: trollin motor mount on a kayak?
what's wrong with paddling? I paddle about 3/4 mile one way just about every time I go.... and that's to hunt chitty public ground.
Re: trollin motor mount on a kayak?
this is hunting chitty public ground too! Ive never myself actually paddled anywhere in one of these things, and dont really know how long it would take. How long you think it would take?

If you have rod holders, this is what I used. pvc in the rod holders and drilled 2 holes in the 2X3 and slide it over the pvc, then drilled holes in pvc just above the wood and slide clips through the pvc to hold wood in place. Seems to work pretty good.

Re: trollin motor mount on a kayak?
i wish it did have some rod holders like that. luckily the water is dropping back out of this place pretty fast and I will be able to get to it on 4 wheeler by weekend probably

by the time you hook all the crap up, and then half way to your hole it goes to crap and you have to redo it, you will be better off using the paddle.
