Looking for advice to control trolling motor

[Private]

Hey all I am looking for advice on how I can control my trolling motor from my main.

 

Problem is the kicker sits so far back with the adjustable transom.

the way your transom is designed to extend past where the big motor is attached, this may be a challenge. Looks like a couple options nay work. The basic ez steer bar I have is adjustable to be pretty long, so it would probably work. Maybe another option is to attach the bar from the back of the cavitation plates of both motors. Lastly, you could fabricate an extension arm that goes back from the big motor 6 I he's or a foot, whatever you need. I hope that makes sense. If the regular attachment points won't work, that is what I would do: extend the little arm that goes back from the main motor. In one picture I am pointing to the arm you could extend out farther, I necessary.

I have a similar main motor/kicker motor positioning layout with my kicker on a Panther adjustable mount. I went with the EZ Steer system and ordered the Extra Long connector rod to tie both motors together. Works quite well with no issues.
