I have a Minkota Rip Tide mounted on the port side of my bow which prevents me from laying my bimini down flat when not in use.

To complicate matters, I keep my boat in the garage and don't have much head room. I was thinking of adding some ss support poles to the bimini, however, this would require adding a sliding track rail for the support poles in order to lower the bimini so I could get the montauk in the garage.

Anyone have any other suggestions how best to configure a bimini with a trolling motor mounted on the bow?
