Hello
My kicker will be here tomorrow and I assume I will need to pull one of the swim platforms. I"m thinking about mounting to the right of the engine because of all the cables & lines there - leaving the left for back access and entrance. Any advice or warnings?
Thanks
Hank

Aye, Matey - give us port or starboard, because "left" and "right" depend on whether you are looking fore or aft!

Got it - keep worring that I will reverse them

I was referring to starboard.


One more Q
Is there a reasonable way to connect the kicker to the fuel supply line as well as a tank
(not at the same time)
Thanks

We rigged our CD22 with this valve:

This looks like the same valve used to select between the port and starboard tanks on my CD-22!

Senior moment - memory fades over the 11 years since our CD moved on to another home. We had considered adding another switching valve, but did it with a brass T and two tubes instead.

HI Hank are you going to use the swim step and just mount a L bracket on the swim step then through bolt it and then you still can use the swim platform . WM sells them look up trolling motor's and mounts in their catolog .I've been thinking about a kicker also what size did you end up with ? let me know how it performs thanks jim
