Do you mean for the motor mounting or for the electrical connections?  Also, what kind of motor are you planning to use?  Bigger motors need bigger mounts!

Good point - initial question was vague.  

24Volt MinnKota Riptide needs a quick connector for power.

Marinco twist-lock.  Keep dielectric grease on the prongs and it will last.  Mine is going on 6 yr. old.  The pin type are worthless.

For the power line a marinco twist lock, If you are looking for a quick release bracket a dog bone is the way to go
