    Pedal Recess Tool Holder?

    My 2016 618 Pro doesn't have a tool holder in the front of the trolling motor pedal recess. Is it supposed to have one? I would like to have one with a stainless cup holder to match the others on the boat. Anyone know where to get one?

    My 17 doesn't either. I thought maybe it's because I've got a factory gimble mount there.

    Call or email Tim at Phoenix. It's expensive. I decided I could walk a few feet to the console.

    My 618 was ordered with a bow panel bracket to mount the graph forward of the recess for the trolling motor pedal; however, my boat was delivered with a polymer style bracket mount that eliminated the tool holder. I returned the mount and Tim sent me a tool holder. I then bought a panel mount which allowed me to mount an HDS12 on the bow panel and have my tool holder.

    I ordered it without a trolling motor. I planned on an Ulterra, but the factory didn't do those. After I read and saw the problems with the Ulterra at the time, I went with a conventional cable steer motor.

    The front tool holder on my 819 is kinda shallow and I fear the needle-nose pliers will dink the gel coat because the bottom out.

    Maybe add some grip tape or clear film to the bottom of the well for protection in that area
