I have a Terrova and like the fact that I have the option of remote or foot pedal. I do wish the spot lock did a better job of holding position, wind will blow you off spot and spot lock will eventually get you back to it. As was mentioned earlier tho, it's pretty handy for when you need to head to the back of the boat for whatever. I was fishing next to some friends last summer who had the i5 and I thought it was quieter than my Terrova.
