[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 323642, member: 764"] I had a bad experience with the Terrova last summer. Had similar issues with the prop not turning as fast as I had the remote or foot pedal set at. Then, my remote blinked an 'f' code (fault). Took it in to Scheels and the repair guy said it was both iPilot and main motherboards, so I had him replace that ($700). I looked at it like the repair was a lot less than $3k for an Ulterra. Took it out again the next week... same things. Brought it back to Bismarck Scheels. He then said it was the lower unit. Opened it up to find full of water and rust. So, now that I was in the $700 I might as well go another $450 for a new lower unit. Paid the bill and took it up to the lake the following weekend. Yup, same issue still. Brought the motor BACK to Bismarck Scheels and this time he says it's the cable from the unit to the head. Another $175 later. So late in the fall that I hadn't been able to take it back out on the water. Crossing fingers my maiden voyage for 2021 will be without incident. [/QUOTE]
