Am brand new to this website as I just purchased a 1981 13' Sport model with a 40 Yamaha.

The boat has no trolling motor and I would like to mount one for fishing here in the Galveston, TX area. I have found some pics on this site with boats that have stern mounted trolling motors.

Not sure which mounting would be best and most functional from fishing a standpoint - stern or bow?

Any information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
