Ultrex was the best bang for my buck. That foot control is super sweet, it's a single polers or pushing man's dream. Nice to have those hands free while pushing off the front or jigging in cover. I forget where my remote is at most times the last couple weeks. Also, here in a few more weeks be nice to keep those hands in a pocket and not worry bout no remote. I have no problem deploying and stowing the TM, or launching and loading the boat, still consider myself lucky to be able to do both. I will try to do the work until my physical abilities say I can't no more, good to keep working IMO. I know you bought the Ulterra Bama and good luck to you sounds like it will suit you well. Just throwing in my two on the subject, good fishing to all and to all a good evening
