A couple of years ago in a MTOA news letter there was a project a couple of MT owners did on their 34' single screw trawlers using a Sears electric trolling motor mounted on swim platform. They were pleased with results and I believe it was accomplished much less then $1000. Good luck, Bob Whicher MTOA # 347 <snip>Get the largest Minncota electric trolling motor (about 60 lbs thrust), install it on the stern transom <snip>
