    Default trolling motor deploy and stow


    I'm considering buying a Minn Kota Terrova or power drive wtth i pilot. Being an old guy, I'm concerned that it may
    more difficult to deploy and stow than the rope pull I'm used to. What y'all think?

    Go with the Terrova 3-4 times easier to deploy and store. Kinda stove up myself and so far no problems with mine.

    Wait a month or two and get the auto deploy and stow, otherwise get the Terrova for sure.

    Welcome to crappie. com The Power Drive is difficult for me to deploy and stow.....But the Terrova is easier and I don't have any problems with it.
