Trolling motor bracket help

[Luketrician]

Is there any kind of universal bracket that I can mount on the bow of my 2003 so that I can run my Minn kota troller?

There are holes already drilled and tapped but they are for a motorguide I believe...

I need to get something goin here and I don't know what to do..try and find a trolling motor with the same hole pattern as to what's already on the bow..or what?

Any advice and suggestions??

you can redrill your minn kota mount to match whats currently on the boat or purchase a minn kota quick release bracket and drill it to match the boat. thats the only two options i can think of without redrilling the boat. mt

The fella I bought my 2003 from filled the holes with epoxy and then wiped some gel coat over the dried epoxy. I redrilled the holes to fit a removable mount.

hey I bought a quick release bracket today. I hope I can use some of the original holes and only have to fill maybe one or two...well see though..
