210 FSH trolling motor mount pics?

How did the finished product work out for you? I’m thinking of doing the same for the install of a MK Ulterra. Should balance out the boat better.
I have been completely satisfied with the trolling motor install. The only surprise I had is that the fiberglass isnt completely flat in that area so I had to add some nonmetallic shims. I mocked up the plate out of cardboard but didnt catch that part if i would have mocked it up in plywood or something.

I can get some pics next time I get the boat, just let me know what you are interested in. It has been pouring rain all weekend so didnt get the boat out.
 
Thank you for your input. I just realized you responded. Sorry the multiple messages. I was planning on putting a 1/4” aluminum support plate underneath the right now gunnel as a support bracket to thicken the fiberglass, and a 1/2” top bracket similar to yours to mount the Rta 62 puck to. Is there anything I should be aware of I might not be seeing?
