Anyone familiar with the Min-Kota trolling motors?<br /><br />I got a "hand-me-down" motor for free, but it's too short for my boat. <br /><br />It's an older type, and doesn't have any remote controls etc... Just your plain-jane basic motor.<br /><br />I took the head of it off, and it appears to just be wires running down the shaft. <br />I think I can just extend the tube.<br /><br />I would like to just add a whole new tube, but I don't know how it's attached at the motor. <br />It looks like the shaft is in the aluminum skeg/housing either welded, threaded, or press fit. Does anyone know how the tube shaft is attached to the motor? <br />I'm assuming it's totally sealed there, so I don't want to take the motor apart.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />H.
