I was curious if anyone has used a bow mount trolling motor for a 15' sport and how much power they used or think is needed. I can find plenty w/ 46 #'s of thrust in my price range but I don't want to make a mistake of using something w/ too little power.
I will use it on lakes as well as flats and bays. Any input would be appreciated.

I had a 46# with a 44" shaft on my 17 Montauk. I used it mainly for bass fishing and it was plenty.
There are a couple pictures in this album
