Minn Kota Quick Release Bracket MKA-21 (Item # 1854021)
Effortlessly remove and secure your trolling motor with the Minn Kota Quick Release Bracket MKA-21. This essential accessory provides a simple and convenient way to detach your motor from your boat's deck, offering benefits for storage, security, and trailering.
Constructed from a high-strength, corrosion-resistant composite material, the MKA-21 is built to withstand the harsh marine environment. Its durable design ensures a long service life, resisting rust and damage from saltwater and UV exposure. The low-profile design leaves a minimal footprint on your deck, preventing a tripping hazard when the motor is removed.
Installation is straightforward, with one plate mounting to the boat's deck and the other to the trolling motor. The two plates securely lock together with a stainless steel pin and a simple yet robust locking handle. For added security, the locking mechanism is designed to accommodate a padlock (not included), deterring theft of your valuable trolling motor.
