| ahhh so the only way to turn the xi5 is w the foot pedal..there aren't any left and right buttons on it like the terrova... that is most likely a deal breaker for me...
the Motorguide pedal seems to have been designed primarily with the bass market in mind. many bass fishermen are used to rocker-style pedals that are placed in recessed holders on the front deck of the boat in order to avoid "Capt'n Hook" leg. in that case, the momentary on-off is in a more sensible location.
the MinnKota pedal feels like an attempt to please both bass fishermen with the rocker and walleye fishermen with the buttons.
i'd like it better if they offered two different pedal versions, one rocker style and one that was purely tap-buttons. but i suppose the economics of that approach aren't good for the companies?
