Msd58,

My trolling motor mount would require you to remove the railings from your boat. I cut out a piece of 1/4 inch aluminum plate that acts as the mounting deck for the troll motor. As you can see I drilled 3 holes on each end of the plate and through bolted it next to the rubrail lip. That motor has been on the boat for about 9 years now.
