Thread: New From Lowrance -- Once again competition gives us new products

That may be the case but I aint giving up my Terrova and I may end up with one of these if they get some good reviews.

Well, I'd hate to have a reason to not buy the next greatest addition to my electronic array.

I think they also said not for hand steering TM ,so if that,s so it would be cable, would it?

More details are now available explaining why you must have a cable steer trolling motor >
