    Default Terrova Troubles


    My 3 batteries only lasted 4 hrs today pulling cranks and I kept getting an electrical short smell when we were heading into the wind. When I got home, I removed my prop to check for fishing line and there wasn't any. I turned on the trolling motor and there's a knock in my motor. Not good news.

    Mine did it last year. Water got in the housing and magnets broke loose. Twice. First time they replaced the magnets. Second time they noticed the water and replaced the housing/motor/shaft assembly. That sounds expensive.
    If it does have water in it, I would argue that it's a known defect.

    Where is Jones' place located. EZ and DD recommended a guy memes Art somewhere around Jackson.

    Thanks Chaney, I feel like that's about what I'm looking at.
