Not sure what happened with the SPAM here ^^^

SpongeBob, I just realized I don't show it, but its the base model, 5 speed tiller handle motor, nothing special.

For power, I got the perfect tool for the job, a MinnKota Trolling Motor Power Center from Amazon .com. Its a box for a Group 27 deep cycle battery, with terminals outside the box, 2 accessory plugs, and manual reset breakers for the trolling motor (60amp) and accessories (10amp). It was $59 but if you tried to do this yourself you would spend probably more and have a kludge. This way, I can remove the entire thing (except the base) in minutes.
