Location: Des Plaines, IL | If you were to look at an "apples to apples" Ulterra, this is the configuration you would get: 60" shaft, 36v system, MEGA side and down, with I-Pilot link. That costs $3,300. Garmin motor retails for $3,200. I think you can probably find some sort of deal on either. I was able to get my Garmin for $2,850.
You do get the auto deploy with the Ulterra, so that is an add benefit if you need/want that. Basically the cost is close. I love this thing so far, and paired with the Echomap Ultra they are awesome (wireless pairing, no NMEA necessary). Right now based on my personal experience with all the major brands, I would choose either Hummingbird/Minn Kota or Garmin. Personally went Garmin because of Panoptix LiveScope and couldn't be happier. High quality all around. |
