Minn Kota 12' Talon Install - Pics

They don't look too tall at all. The 10's would be below the top of the cowling on that one.

Too bad MK doesn't make one with the control head on the left side and one with the control head on the right side. Then anal retentive OCDs like me could get the symmetry of the control heads pointing in towards the engine or pointing out to the sides.

Great point! I'm the same way!

Is there not a way to mount one of the standard remotes to the console instead of having to buy 2 wireless foot switches?

When I ordered both my Talons each one came with 2 remotes, 2 neck lanyards and 1 mount for the console. In total I ended up with 4 remotes, 4 neck lanyards and two console mounts. I also ordered a foot remote switch. Here is how I run my set up.

Foot switch at the bow...it has a mode switch that allows me to use left, right or both at the same time

I have a neck lanyard with one remote that is programmed to run both Talon's at the same time...I only use it in cool weather. In the heat of summer I have another setup that I use.

I have a D Ring clip that is supposed to be used for car keys. On the D Ring I have a Talon remote that is programmed to run both Talons. I clip the D Ring to a belt loop or my life-jacket. this is the setup I use in the heat of summer because I do not like the neck lanyard when I am hot and sweaty.

I have been running that set up for 10 months. I have yet to run across a situation where I felt like I need to mount one to the console. I have one on me via a lanyard or a D Ring clip at all times. I use the foot switch when up front. In my situation the console mount is not necessary.

I have two spare remotes and both dash mounts that I do not use.

I just have 1 remote for both Talons, on the same lanyard as the Ulterra remote. Works well. Have a spare and few batteries in the glove box.
