I had to purchase another Minn-Kota motor and they don't have the model I bought years ago when Jon made an order for the three of us, a saltwater riptide 101, It has been replaced by a unit that is 4.5" in diameter instead of 4" and the stub up that has the female threads is now in the middle of the housing.<div>I bought it from the same place Jon got our "Northland Marine" and they quoted a little over $500 but he still honored our Psubs discount which brought it down to $405. There are pros and cons with living in Hawaii as the shipping to get it here was $225! Oh well. </div><div>Unfortunately I now have to re fab a unit that will hold the thruster as well as my steering linkage. </div><div>Keeps me out of trouble.</div><div><br></div><div>Rick</div></div>
