I'm considering putting a trolling motor on my 195 CC for use when I'm fishing in bays or rivers. I'd prefer a bow mount. Does anyone have experience with trolling motors on a 195 CC? Can you provide advice about the mount, motor size, and battery(ies) location? (I assume I'll need to add deep cycle batteries to the boat.) Thanks for your help.
 
I have a Minn Kota 55 pound thrust trolling motor on mine. I transfered this motor from a previous boat I owned. It has enough power for most use but if I was to buy a new one I think I would go with the next stronger model.
Here are a couple pics of the mount I made for my 195cc.

Thanks, RSCOTT. This was very helpful. Did you add deep cycle batteries to the boat to power the trolling motor? If yes, where did you put them?
 
I did add 1 deep cycle and a 2 battery on board charger. I have the battery mounted next to the other battery in the CC.

What material did you make you custom mount with? Did you have to alter your bow rail?
Would you be interested in selling one?
