I would suggest NOT using universal Sonars. Get and use the transducer that comes with your unit.
It is like this:
If your Honda car calls for special Honda break fluid, put in the Special Honda break fluid, don't put in the $.99 can you can buy at the local gas station.
Use what was supposed to be used.
I usually go through about 4-6 foot pedals a year, but I still love the PD's. Plus I have to have it so I can guide out of the back of the boat.
4-6 foot pedals in 227 days of part and full day fishing does not sound like an ringing endorsement of a products durability, but that may just be me. I thought the things were more durable than that.
I use a maxxum and have found it to be extremely durable in rough use, with wood collisions. I am just thinking that I would have been through at least 4 foot pedals by now with Mr. Hulbert's results. As it is I keep an extra prop on my boat at all times, I would hate to have to carry a new or rebuilt foot pedal too at all times due to anticipated failure. |
