Minn Kota bowmount install

Post by drewb » Tue Jan 19, 2021 4:48 pm

Hi Guys,

After a bit of info from anyone who has installed a bow mounted electric on an aluminum runabout. I'll need to get a plate welded to the bow that projects forward of the bow so there's enough length in front of the windscreen.

Looking for marine welder or fabricator in SE Melb, preferably Mornington Peninsula way that has experience in doing this, I've done a few google searches and on other forums, can't seem to find anyone in Melb.

Cheers.

Ozplate boats in seaford should be able to help you. They build plate boats there obviously.

You can also contact member cheaterparts on here, he might be able to help you as well. He is not far from Mornington either.

Otherwise start ringing your local engineering shops and see who can do it for you.
