After I got used to the remote I thought I'd keep the pedal as backup. I've gotten careless about putting it in the boat though and need to start back doing that.

Be sure to keep a couple of back-up batteries for remote on hand too! They are not usually carried in quick stops and gas stations. I keep one in my tackle box too in case I'm on a friends boat and need one.
