I'm also considering upgrading the TM on Esox Maniac. The existing TM is 12/24V cable drive Johnson, same age as the boat. The boat is a 1985 17'6' Skeeter SF150 bassboat. I've heard & read lots of negatives about pedals on non-cable units. Hard to diffentiate whats real and what may not be real... the dollars don't really matter. I want reliability and more power - I have a Hummminbird 997SI w/ GPS, etc. so having the ability to link and track structure/breaklines, trails or hold a specific spot would be nice.

What would you choose & why? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.
