12V Trolling Motors

[lazyMlazyK]

May be a dumb question, but here it goes - does anyone make a 12V, 55lb trolling motor that would link up to a Helix 9 G3N to follow contours and have spot lock? The Co-Pilot on my Powerdrive V1 is starting to show signs of giving up the ghost, and I despise the damned pedal control. Also, not looking to drop $2k on a new trolling motor right now. The whole boat didn't cost that much!

Don't really have much room in the S.S. Minnow to incorporate a 24V system without some Fred-in-the-shed custom work.

MinnKota makes a 55lb Terrova with ipilot.

Amazon lists a 55# with ipilot Link (Link is needed to follow contours), but I'm not sure if new models of the 55 have Link, it doesn't look like it based on their website. But, you're not getting one for under 2k most likely unless you find one used.

I upgraded my 12V 55lb thrust Powerdrive V2 with an iPilot head a few years ago and it was worth every penny.

I thought they quit quit selling that upgrade?

If you're in the market I am sitting on a 55v Terrova I-Pilot that I'd like to get rid of...shoot me a message!

They may have quit making it- it's been a couple of years or more since I purchased mine and it wasn't through Minnkota - it was through a different site.
