Looking for information on mounting an electric trolling motor on my 26’ boat. My Edge Marine has a nice flat surface for the bow mount, so I contacted a couple of marinas for an install. For a Minkota Ulterra or a Garmin, they wanted almost $9000.00 for the install. Really? In looking up the parts needed, they totaled about $5000. Then looking on YouTube, the mounting does not look difficult. $4000 just to mount one of these? With the new Lithium batteries do I really need 36v or can I get by with 24v? Any thoughts on this?
Also word I hear is the Ulterras are not that reliable, but can be launched and recovered remotely which is a nice advantage. Lots of questions, love to hear what others have experienced.
