Mercury stepped into the electric motor game too so I guess with the lowrance ghost they didn't see the need for the rest of the lineup? Shame ...guess minn kota is about the only game left for a simple cheap no frills trolling motor. Maybe Lawrence will market a simple transom mount type. Guess their is always the Amazon and Chinese brands ....
. I think other parts will dry up quickly.
There is an x3 on Facebook $500I saw this a few weeks ago and was disappointed. My Xi3 has been doing great. Was watching the used market for a 55lb Xi3 or Xi5 and add the pinpoint system to it. This was to replace a W55.
I had a Pinpoint system in my Amazon cart. It was around $350. It quickly went to $500 and out of stock after the announcement.
In order to control the market you first have to own the market, Brunswick started buying up boat manufacturers, and everything boating many years ago, they bought Wahoo Boats were I was the Production Manager and they moved the entire plant to Lincoln, Alabama; at that time they were buying up every boat company they could along with many other boating accessory companies!
