Hi folks.As many know I've always been somewhat 'challenged' mechanically.That apparently is not going to improve with age.I'm still on warranty but that's close to expiration as well.Seems with age new challenges keep arising.I can get a golf cart to take me to the dock,Frank n Laura have graciously installed a 'ski lift' to get me from there to my 'rap' machine,but then what?One of these days my trolling motor is going to win and 'deploy' me into the water.
With that background I would appreciate any input on the reliability and ease of use of the Mn Kota 'Ulterra' and 'Terrova' trolling motors.
Reliable?Preferred options?24 or 36 volt?I-Pilot or I Pilot Link?Shaft size(careful now),etc.
On the 'Ulterra',is the self deployment feature holding up?Heard a few scary tales and remember the 'Genesis'.
Any n all comments appreciated.Thanks.
