I need a quick release that is at least 21 inches long or something that can slide out to clear boat. Any ideas? I need it for a power drive.even some type of plastic plate that I can mount to the boat then mount the motor out on the plate.

if you have a machine shop around your home you can have a custom one built just a thought

i feel that my terova on MKA-16-02 would clear that but if it woudnt any metal yard could sell you something like 3/8 aluminum plate that you could streach out a bit.

the mount is on the back end of my terova, if i find a tape measure ill let you know more, id just get the mount you want and you will figure it out from there

On my Jon boat, I mounted my motor to a 1/4" piece of aluminum diamond plate slightly wider than the base of the trolling motor and then I was able to offset the removable section of the quick release and still use the existing holes for the stationary part of the quick release. I'd attach a pic but it's buried in storage.

Thanks for the input. I was thinking the machine shop route to just didn't know if anything was already out there. Yes it's on a allison xb2003

I used a MKA32 with a genesis trolling motor on my Allison and it worked fine.

Put two regular quick releases together. Cheaper than machine shop.

There is an adapter plate that allows use of the existing cable drive mounting holes and the MKA-21 bracket with a Terova.
