Any tricks to getting to the bolts

I want to remove the Minn Kota TM from the bow and replace with another. How do you get to the bolts up front under the nose? I have a 93 Pantera 2 and like most all boats, you cant get to the nose. Puzzled!! Thanks

Through the center panel, thats the way it was installed many years ago. Yep, we all stuck our gorilla arms inside that little hole in the middle. BCB

If it is a tight fit and you are going in with a wrench dont forget to tie a string to it in case you drop it!Jason Ferbrache – Edmond, OK 1995 Basscat Eyra
