    Tom,

    Good to hear from you. Been trying to get a hold of the "kids"...Paul/Vonna but haven't had any luck. Thanks for the advice. I think the 55lb. should be fine for my boat, don't you. My 40lb. hauls it around pretty good. Just need a little more ummphhh in the wind. I'm trying to prepare for that Big Sandy wind...ya know!

    Can't wait to get down and see you catch some fish! LOL!

    John

    Talked to Paul tonight. Vonna is under the weather right now. Paul and I are worse than two old women when we gets on the phone.

    You will be ok at 55lb....I just prefer 24v systems. 1/2 the overhead current and twice the run time.

    I keping hearing that the 24 volt system is better and I'm starting to think I just need to bite the bullet and buy the 80lb. 24v autopilot and be done with it. Thanks for the info.

    I can't reach Paul and Vonna so tell them hi for me.

    Locking, docking, and unlocking the motor. Pain in the arsh.

    The Terrova falls away easily and effortlessly! It is a big difference.

    Sure look the same to me except up release handle. My V2 is a pain in the butt to pick up out of the water. No handle, haveta grab head of unit and fat cable to lift. Sometimes I feel like I am gonna fall out the boat while getting the motor up. It is hard to get things up at my age, but it is doable.
