Location: Albuquerque | Hello, just bought a used 18 foot Tuffy Pike Rampage that is going to need a new trolling motor. I've narrowed my choices down to two, but I will have to order on-line and I have no experience with either one. Which of the two would be the best fit for my boat?
1. Minn Kota 74 PowerDrive with 18 foot cable - 74 pounds of thrust - 24 volt - 54" shaft
on sale for $579.99
2. Minn Kota Maxxum 65/SC Bow Mount - 65 pounds of thrust - 24 volt - 52" shaft
price is $539.99
Neither of the two come with autopilot or co-pilot or any of that stuff as far as I can tell from the description on Cabelas web-site. I'm just curious which one is more bang for the buck in comparison to the amount of potential problems I could encounter with either one.
Thanks in advance for any help. |
