Hi guys. Here we have a Minn Kota Power Up remote steering unit. My new boat's kicker is connected to the main steering so I dont need it anymore. $50 or trade for some trolling rods/reels or ???

: minnkota remote steering for kicker Shellback 10-13-2001, 05:07 AM Excuse my ignorance, but could you explain exactly what the remote steering is? Would it be something that I could operate my 44# transom mount Minnkota from other than the rear seat of the boat? You could e-mail me at wapiti@epix.net Thanks. perchjerker 10-13-2001, 02:02 PM Just for anyone who is interested, its not for an electric. Its designed for a gas outboard, up to 15 hp if I remember correctly. I have some pics ready to go and can email them to anyone who requests them. It has mounts that get captured between the transom and the outboard clamps. It has 2 spring loaded hooks that connect to the spot where a conventional steering cable would mount. The old motor I had didnt have the steering connection I am talking about, so I mounted a screw eye in the same general location and hooked it up to that. It worked fine for 2 years. Hope that clears things up a bit... -Thanks!!! EricCO 10-22-2001, 12:45 PM How long does it take to respond as well as go from one end of the spectrum to the other? Can you email me a picture of it or know of one on the web. What is retail price? perchjerker 10-22-2001, 01:23 PM As far as response time goes, its pretty instantaneous...its an electric motor, so when you hit the switch, it moves right away. Gotta be only a few seconds for it to travel its whole range. I think it was about $90 when I bought it. I will email you a pic. If you are interested, I have some other pics I can send you as well. djkrak 01-27-2002, 09:07 AM I haven't seen one of these, I need to run a kicker on 18ft Lund. Do you know if this would work on this boat. I would appreciate it if you could email pictures. Don Keller perchjerker 01-27-2002, 10:19 AM Actually, its spoken for. But if you can find one, it would work great for you. Minn Kota doesnt make them anymore, thats why you cant find anything on it. I can send you some pics of it anyway if you want to see what it looks like. djkrak 01-27-2002, 11:25 AM Yes, I would like to see the pictures if it isn't too much trouble.
