I'm curious, what's the advantage of upgrading every year and having to go through all the setup and rigging "hassles"? Seems like an awful lot of money to shell out each year...

that's a fair question.

i rig everything myself (aside from the motors), and after doing 5 boats i've learned enough tips and tricks that it's not too much of a hassle anymore. i can get the trolling motor, bow and console combos, gps pucks, and battery charger drilled, wired, and installed in a day if i set my mind to it. spending a couple nights in the garage after work listening to the Brewers game and drinking a brew isn't too bad at all...
it also helps things tremendously that Tuffy has an electronics breaker box installed under the console with 4 pre-rigged accessory lines, 2 of which are run up to the front under the bow point. just connect them to your unit's power and turn it on.

and yes, i have to shell out some cabbage every year for the new electronics. i enjoy getting the latest gear and trying different things out, so that's just a price that i've been willing to pay.
