Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | I have run one for almost a year and it was great until one day it went nuts. The head kept turning the same direction and would not stop. I unpluged it and pluged it back in and it kept going until it slowed down and started to bind. I unpluged it and took in it for service. I week later it was back on my boat at no charge and since then it's been great. One of the quietest motors I have ever used and it's a work horse.
I use this motor day in and day out and it has held up. The problem with it the one time I had it serviced was the stop inside. There is a stop so the motor will not over rotate. I was told this was going to be a fixed problem with the ones coming out of the factory.
This product is a great motor but I don't believe it is worth the cash I spent on it. For me I could have done without the extras. But, for learning new water and structure the drpth track is a great tool. Track around a rock bar that comes up from deep water. Now look at your GPS and see how it lays out at different depths. Very cool tool, this makes it worth the extra cash for the depth track. Creek track and shore track I don't use much. |
