Can any one tell me how to mount aa trolling motor on the bow of my 1988 whaler sport without leaving the wires leading to the battery exposed? Can they be run under the Rub Rail? This is a project for my kids any help would be appreciated.

When I mounted the bow mount on my Montauk I installed the battery in the anchor locker. Had a short run on the deck top but it worked for me. I could get a day of fishing and then throw the charger on it when I got home.
