Post Trolling Motor for 17x50 Gator Track
Just trying to find out if a 52" trolling motor is high enough for a 17x50 hybrid Gator Trax. High enough so I don't have to bend down and to operate a tiller style bow mounted trolling motor?

Figure 34" (conservative number, might not need that much, might need a little more) to fully submerge prop, so it'll stick up another 18" above deck or so.

I have a 1754 gator Trax with a hybrid bow. It's got a 70# Minnkota riptide tiller with 52" shaft. I'm 6'3" and it's plenty tall enough for me.
