Location: Perryville, MO | You won't be disappointed...for all the reasons others have already stated. The only draw-back as you've noted is deploying/stowing. I don't have any problem at all with it...it's as fast and effortless for me as a "roped" deploy, but my buddy who has a serious back issue and owns one gets irritated at times with it. Upgrading power makes sense (I've got an aluminium rig and can darn near ski behind my trolling motor...but it comes in handy for me on many lakes down here in the south where there are limits on outboard horsepower on many lakes). As far as: will you use the autopilot feature? From the moment I deploy to the moment I stow my autopilot rarely/if ever gets turned off. I don't think I could ever live without it. Ranks among the most important tools in my boat. |
