Trolling motor dilema
:help:Busted my 24v Great white yesterday. Current pushed me into a piling and crushed the top plastic part like an egg shell. Really never had any trouble with it, but was wondering whether I should replace with a GW or A min kota???

Plastic shell and innards can be replaced. Gulf Cost Trolling Motors 281-481-6838. Just the housing top and bottom is $35.00 or so. Good luck.

If it were me, I'd fix that one. It's just a cosmetic problem.
Like Pox said...don't listen to ASR with that Minny crap....he's a MK repairman. :smokin: |

Control boards....average cost ~ $ 80 to 110 when ordered on line, if it needs to be replaced.

Both MK and MG are good. All of them have problem motors.

Thank you for all the positive input. Of course common sense dictates that I go for the repair option. Thanks again, Tinman.
