wouldn't a trolling motor look a little cheesy
mounted on the bow of an old open bow trihull?

My 77 Thunderbird open bow trihull had a trolling motor stuck on the front
when I got it. Not only did it look dorky, it made half the bow seating
useless and made it just about impossible to seal that barge like front end
from the weather. So I took it off and stuck it in the attic. If I was an
ardent enough fisherman to want to use it, I think I'd rig up something with
blind nuts, wing screws, etc so that the trolling motor could be easily
removed when not in use.
