My wife bought me a really nice transom mount trolling motor for my little tri-hull. Unfortunately the transom mount gets in the way of the tiller of the outboard. Are there optional mounts for Motorguide that will allow the tiller to travel left and right without hitting the mount?

Pics?

I've got a Motorguide SW trolling motor on the transom of my 15' tri-hull. I built a mount for it from Starboard and aluminum angle that extends about 12" out from the transom so as to avoid the OB steering ram/tiller, and that also allows the troller to rotate a full 360? without hitting the OB, even if the OB is turned all the way toward the troller.
