I have a 2008 Cougar FTD that has a Motor Guide trolling motor. Im looking at replacing with a Minn Kota unit. The Motor Guide unit is very difficult to raise and lower and a fishing buddy of mine has a Minn Kota and the operation is much smoother. Im looking at the Maxxum 101 model and noticed it comes in three shaft lengths. 42, 52, and 62 inch. Which shaft length do I need for the Cougar? Also, anyone have any experience with the Maxxum 101 model?
