Screw the snow, I am already thinking of open water season.
Along that line, I "need" a new electric trolling motor. The new Ulterra from Minnkota looks pretty sweet with its auto-deploy and store feature. Anyone running one of these yet that can let me know if they are worth it for that feature.
In particular, I already am running an I-Pilot after upgrading an old Powerdrive, but there are times where getting up into the bow to deploy or store the trolling motor is a pain (kids, etc). So the auto-deploy and store is a nifty little feature if it has proven to be dependable. Plus, if it does go out, can you still manually deploy and store the motor?
Thanks!
