Vance,

That would be great and cheaper than purchasing one.  They are pretty expensive.  I'll keep checking around here to see if I can find one local.  I just need to locate a good industrial supply shop.

What size minn-kotas are $220 for the head only?  I know Jim was using 100lb thrust on Bionic Guppy, but don't recall how many he had on it.  The 600 is weighing in at 4500lbs so I'm thinking at least 1-100lb and 2-50lb thrusters if I were to change over.  If I did that I would fix-mount them though.

Jon,

I'll see if I can find a chain wrench and send it up to you. As for the Minn-Kota, you can buy the power head only, new in the box (with a prop) for about $220. Their small motor controllers (the ones that fit in the trolling motor steering head) are $125 apiece.
