I upgraded from a Terrova 24v to an Xi5 36v with pinpoint this year and I love it. The anchor mode IS much tighter than spot lock. It is quiet, smooth, turns quicker and has rock solid stow/deploy mechanisms. I like the fact that the wireless foot pedal has a anchor mode button on it so you can anchor while figure 8ing or while fighting a fish without reaching around for the remote.

My three negatives are: There is no speed read out on the remote, heading lock has to be turned on with the remote (no button on foot pedal) and the heading lock is not quite as good as the autopilot on the Terrova imo.

I like it better than Terrova.
