Okay I just put an Minn Kota Ultrex on the front of my Ranger 198 P. I mounted the stabilizer bar on the gunnel of the boat. I posted some pics in the facebook group for ranger aluminums and people keep saying this is a bad idea. Other then paint issues which is all I can think of. What is the issue? I plan on putting some of the rubber step stuff under the foot like the bow of the boat has to save the paint from being damaged.
I would really like to pictures showing the issues of doing it this way. So far no one has been able to show why.
