  • Outboard and controls

    Was wondering if anyone uses an outboard on there machine?
    What size outboard ol would I need for a Conquest?
    Anyone have remote controls for the outboard to control from front seat?
    I have an extension for the throttle. But would be cool to have control front, reverse and throttle from the front seat. Anyone?

      i will b pushing mine with a 4hp yamaha 4 stroke. I have to finish the mount up before i can use it, but i think it will do fine. not looking to win any races, just fish.. I will also have my 55 trolling motor on there, it moved the max with ease so i am assuming similar results on the argo.. I may even get a little better performance on the argo, as the mount on the max was up front and the thrust somewhat was inhibited by the body/tires.. We will see come warm weather.. Maybe sooner if work stays slack..

      Ps, if it works well I have a 3 hp 2 stroke Yamaha that I will be selling. It's a long shaft so it should fit well.

        Sounds interesting. I was thinking of trying to put the controls up front so I wouldn't have to climb in the back. There are some pretty deep and wide creeks I would like to go up. And think an outboard would be better. I also scored a 55lb thrust trolling motor I may try.
