I have a minnkota with ipilot. It's a great motor and very reliable. The spot lock feature works well but not perfectly. It's better in wind or current but works ok in all conditions. Will it keep you directly over a brush pile like your double anchored? No it won't, but neither will a single anchor. Im actually learning to like some of the pulsing and have successfully fished deep brush many times and am able to use jigging mode on my fishfinder without issue. When it doesn't seem to be working well enough I just anchor or tie off but that's pretty rare. I went with this motor over the motor guide because of the issues I heard and read about motorguide. Also figured there was always the possibility of a minnkota improvement that would allow me to upgrade to a more accurate control head.
