I've seen small cheap weedeater style trolling motors posted before, and I was wondering if anyone was familiar with this and knows where I can order one. I'd like one as an emergency backup on my boat if I ever needed to move it.

Pop the propeller off, slip on the string line trimmer, and I'm ready to do yard work.

Looks like it's due for its annual alignment though.

to all of you!
So far, I'm still on the original alignment. I plan to check this when it's time for a re-seal and PDS bearing replacement.
The shop says that I should do a gimbal bearing also.
And no... the DP is not yet available. Soon though!
Notice that there is no bellows on this model, but they did retain the ESA. I'm currently having micro switch issues.

Can a B/L owner purchase one?

Not to be a killjoy but....
You really should be using the curved shaft weed wacker instead of the straight shaft.
I dont see the big bulb anode hanging off those B3 props either.
One last point - can this be stored in the bilge or does it have to be strapped to the swim platform when not in use ?
