Thread: Trolling motor to be used primarily as a GPS Anchor

I've seen boats with trolling motors that have bow rails with a hinged section that flips up to allow the shaft to be deployed/stowed.

I have done a bit of youtubing looking for ideas and seen some as well. Problem I have with the 521 McLays narrow nose and bugger all room because of the anchor post is I would have to have both rails cut to allow the motor to lay down when not in use.
May as well cut the things off imo. Or have a bracket that allows it to deploy and lay down outside the rails making it liable to get damaged if I'm not careful around jetty and trees etc which is highly likely knowing me
