Anyone using a hand-controoled trolling motor mounted at the front of the boat? Like it?
I’ve had a MinnKota powerdrive for 10-11 years and I’ve never really liked it. Slow response, crappy pedal, etc. I’m always working high current and shorelines where immediate corrections would be really useful. I’ve gotten to the point where it’s more bother than it’s worth, and I use my tiller to control the boat. Just wondering if one of the quick retractable hand controlled models at the front is worth a try. I’m a “simpler is better” type guy anyway. Thoughts?
