I'm about to purchase a new trolling motor to go on my boat (actually, I'm picking up the boat, a Tracker topper 1542 LW, next weekend!:D). I'm looking at one of the following 55 Lb thrust motors:

1) BPS Prowler T55/40 for $199.99 (+ $18.99 shipping).

2) Motorguide VariMAX V55 HT for $224.99 (+ $10 shipping).

3) Minn Kota Endura C2 55 for $249.99 (+ $18.99 shipping).


Looking for educated opinions, experiences, etc. These are all in the same price and power range, so which is the better deal?????

Any and all input will be GREATLY appreciated!!!!
