I have the same motor. You’ll love it.
Does the leveling wedge support the entire underside of the Shuttle Slide? The picture looks like it doesn’t. Is that going to be enough support when you put the hammer down? I bought a different style MinnKota mount than I have used in the past for Terrovas because MinnKota said that style mount wasn’t designed for the forces that this motor with the 72″ shaft can produce.
Hi Netguy,
Yes, the wedge supports the entire mount. The entire footprint of the mount is 3.5″ x 13″. I put 6 holes the entire way through the bow cap and fastened with washers and lock nuts. I also have some aluminum bar stock i can use if the washers aren’t enough. I took it out yesterday to test and set up everything, and was cruising at full speed and took a hard right turn and the boat turned on a dime with no complaining from the mount, the motor, or the boat. I’m super impressed with the whole deal and hopefully it will meet the need for many years.
