Mill Creek trolling motor

Posted by Robert Hancock on Apr 23, 2005

If you build the leeboard bracket from the mill creek plans , it will do double duty as a trolling motor mount. Motor shown here is a Sevilor which is plenty strong enough for the job. Actually I have towed other tired paddlers home behind me on several occasions. Mount the leeboard thwart behind the seat as far back as it will go and sit the battery behind tre seat as well .Yes I know the paddle is upside down and back to front. Cheers.
