Has anyone mounted a trolling motor on the bow of the SH Escape 200 LE? If so, could you post some pictures? I just purchased a wireless bow mounted trolling
motor with a 60 inch shaft and would like some feedback, suggestions, or input on mounting location on the bow. Thanks.

This is a Victory 225 not sure if these will help but I think the bow is similar to the Escape.

Wow, nice set up rip! I've never even thought about mounting one on my Victory. What size is that thing and how does it work out for you? I assume you use
it in the shallows for trout and reds? You got me thinkin'!

Yea Pug got me to thinking too. That's not my Vic. I found those pics on the net some guy was selling it. I also like the front mounted seat and the arch
he has. I had plans to get a hard top but they are very expensive that arch is great. I want something more substantial to hold on to when i have to drop
anchor. I'm not really interested in the trolling motor i have my eye on a windlass but not sure if there is enough room to mount it. See the pic below of
the arch he added bimini still works best of both worlds.
Sorry forgot about the trolling motor it is a Minn Kota Saltwater Series 80 lb thrust with quick detach and wireless co pilot auto navigation-24 volt dual
battery system. He said it cost him $1800. He said he spent $2800 on the arch-that is definitely doable compared to $7000 for a hard top.
