I have a 2005 (non fish and ski) 185 sport OB that I like to add a bow mount trolling motor. First can anyone tell me the specs(thrust and shaft length) and/or mounting details for the motor that comes with the fish and ski package. Second has anyone tried to install the Motor Guide wireless trolling motor - it's the unit I'd like to purchase. However the mounting bracket is designed more for a Pontoon boat or a v hull with a square rather than a tapered bow deck. Any pictures would be appreciated as well.
