Does anyone have any pics of a Premier Explorer 221 with a trolling motor installed? I am thinking of getting one but I would like to see how and where they have been installed.
Any extra advice would be appreciated.
FYI - I am looking at the Terrova 80# with I-pilot.

Don't have one but the PE 221 looks like any other pontoon and only option is to mount it between the front seats and out the front gate. I have the Terrova on my Tracker and the one thing about these motors is they require hanging past the edge of the desk. I went with the polymer mount so it is east to remove and is lockable.

The bow of the Explorer is identical to the Castaway and you can see a video of a Castaway with a 80lb Terrova mounted on this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DHhTcYFFr0 Hope it helps.
