Don't think its out yet, gonna be nice.
Website say January 2015
For me....the automatic deploy and stow would be worth it
Oh man. I thought it came out in september of this year. So i think i may hold out for it.
No doubt G, specially in the winter time when 3 are in the boat with a bunch of clothes on and such. Looked at it at Greenville at the Crappie Masters National Championship and it was awesome. Heck, in the summer months I wouldn't even go to the front of the boat except getting in and out. Too, in ruff water situations the troller can do its thing till the outboard is cranked and everyone is set, gonna be a major factor I think.
Deploying the terrova forces me to get way out on the nose of my small decked xpress h51and lean way down. Bad balance and this position is tough. Ulterra would be a godsend.
Wife wont let me have both motors. If fact she may even hit the fan if she ever found out I swapped em out. I told her i got my boat EXACTLY rigged like I wanted, and now i realize that isnt true. lol. She will never know thought!!! hahaha
I'll have one on my boat sometime this spring. I've had a couple close calls on rough days stowing my Terrova.
Can't wait to see some reviews (while the piggy bank gets bigger.)
If your piggy bank gets bigger.....tell me the secret lol
no. they didn't have it when I got mine. About a month later here it came. Not sure if I would use it. Mainly I just use mine to pull cranks. I think if the contour lines change rapidly it will change fast and would probably toss me overboard. So I have heard or read.
Just worked a show beside one of these things on display. saw many, many demos of it. wanted one BBBBAAAADDDD. wow. all i could thin about was how you could just back the boat into the water, let it drift off, then with the remote, drive that sucker up to wait on you while you parked. no wet feet. but, was told it wouldn't be available until early spring. kinda got a rule about being the first one on the block to own new technology.... it generally turns into a collector item if i do it. If you get one, please let us know what you think.
You would use it, go to feature is awesome!!!!
Im saving up for it now. Hopefully by end of december i will be ready for it!!!! I hate to be one of the first to test something to, but i think its going to be so awesome i dont think i could live without it! So i guess im going in head first!
