Subject: Forgive Me Father...For I Have Sinned

i've been a big MotorGuide trolling motor fan because they've always worked great for me and been bombproof - no problems ever.

on the other hand i absolutely love my Humminbird sonars.
unfortunately the optional built-in MotorGuide transducer is a Lowrance single frequency one that's incompatible with the dual freq Humminbird units, requiring running external wires down the outside.

so today i broke down and ordered a MinnKota Terrova.
it's got the built-in dual beam transducer for use with the Humminbird and electric steer...no wireless pedal but the 18' cord will reach the back deck in my boat. i'm hoping the pedal holds up, that's been my biggest reservation with the MinnKotas.

it's even got AutoPilot...something i've never really seen the need to use before; i suppose i'll fall in love with it once i start using it?
