    Is it possible to take a tiller kicker motor and make it so you can control everything from the cockpit and not the back of the boat? Just wondering what I could do and what my options are plus estimated cost. Thanks.

    You could buy a Panther steering bar for $29.99 and a Troll Master Pro 2 for $225 and have the best of both worlds (Tiller and Control from the helm). This is how I have set up my last two boats.

    You also buy a quick disconnect rod that you can install between the two motor’s. Then you just steer using the wheel. The rod is usally about $30 at Fleet farm. I also run the troll master and really enjoy it.

    I have the panther electric steer that works great for operateing the kicker, but I mostly just use that for handlineing. When Im trolling I set my kicker straight and then steer with the big motor. Works great for me!
