I hope I am in the right place for this, sorry if I am not. I have just recently purchased an 8 ft Bass raider, and a 40 lb thrust Minn Kota. This is actually my first boat I have ever owned. I am wanting to put the troller on the front. So my question is.... Can I just unscrew the bolt that holds the head onto the shaft and spin it 180 degrees to have my tiller facing me while it is mounted in the front? Has anyone else ever done this? I am planning to fish a lot more this summer. Last year I was in a canoe, and realized, I was spending too much time holding it in place for the guy who doesn't know how to fish, so he can get hung up. All feedback is greatly welcomed, and I also look forward to reading more from this forum. ;D
