I have an old 3HP minkota transom mount electric trolling motor. It must be +12yrs old but has worked great until last fall but now the handle turns all the way around and the solenoid/switch doesn't engage in fwd/rev properly so I think I need to find that part(switch). I looked for minkota's HSOforum but couldn't find it and have my doubts if they would have parts that old? Anybody know who/where to find old trolling motor components? Appreciate any insight. redhooks

We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha
motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor, wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will
want for this boat? Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke
Mariner motor) I will appreciate any help with these questions.
I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage. Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.
Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
