Location: oswego, il | This would be a good question for a guide who might have one and does so from the rear deck. |

| They don't make one. If you want one you'll need to have one engineered and made. It's tricky because it's not a simple on/off type of circuit. Lots of Ohms, amps and that sort of engineering stuff goes into it. Cable length changes how the data is perceived. |

Only time I went with a guide, he used a remote from the rear with his Terrova. |

i understand ohms and amps, im an industrial electrician that specialized in machine controls, i very seriously doubt that adding 10' of cable to it would effect it in any way. Im going to try and track down the 4pin connectors and make one. |

I looked on Minn Kota's website, and the cord is 18'... There's also the iPilot, and iPilot Link remotes. Both have a pretty simple learning curve, and in some ways beats the heck out of the pedal!

Keep us posted ! I know it has been done and can be done.
