I hope this topic hasn't been beaten to death but, I did not find what I was looking for in the search section. I am going to be in the T.M. market later this spring. I know that I will go with Minn Kota as they have always had great luck with them. I also know that I want the I-pilot in 55# thrust on my 16 ft flat bottom boat. What I don't know is what the difference in the Power drive and Torrova is? I would like to have a foot pedal so that I can use both methods and from what I have gathered from the Minn Kota web site both have foot pedals. Am I correct on that? If all things are equal, 55# thrust, I-pilot, and foot pedal which of the two is the better option and why? Thanks for the help. Fish or hunt.
