Anyone have any experience with one of these? Seems slick!

 

[Crankn]

I've always thought it would be a good thing!

Sorry I was thinking of a different one this one looks even better!

 

[Vollmer]

Yeah, that looks slick ... food for thought.

I bet it's a lot cheaper than the new Minnkota Ulterra!! I loved the commercial they posted on the internet, but when I saw the pricetag.... I had to check and see if I shite myself!!! :;:muahaha

That product you posted shouldn't be more than $300, should it?

 

[DerHornen]

I bought one in May and I'm pretty happy with it. It's about $200.

The music was so intense I was expecting to see an arrow put into the side of a deer any minute.

I watched the installation video on their web site. The caveman-like grinder marks and silver spray paint gave me pause.

I saw this the other day and am thinking about getting one. The boat I run now has the bow eye mounted really low so I can not reach it by leaning over the bow like I could on my last boat. This would make things so much easier especially when by myself.

I just leave outboard powered up (gently) - walk up to the front, reach down, and hook or unhook. No big thing (on my shallow boat anyway... even with short t-rex arms).
