An improved technique for operation and assembly of trolling motors is dis- closed. The direction indicator assembly is flexibly mounted to allow its initial assembly in any direction. The direction indicator can then be flexibly moved and twisted into the proper orientation where its arrow aligns with the direction of the thrust motor. If any fine-tuning is required, the direction indicator can then be turned relative to a gear mounted to it. The positioning system for the stem sup- porting the thrust motor includes a clutch system to avoid reverse movements of the drive system for the stem supporting the thrust motor. Fine adjustments can be made to the direction indicator, even after the thrust motor has struck a fixed object and rotated through the use of a clutching system. The clutching system is auto-matic and allows the continuation of steering commands to the thrust motor once the shock load that has caused the clutch to disengage is removed.
