I would run a55 lb thrust endura max .i can tell you from 30 yrs of experience I would not go any smaller . I run electric only. I’was pushing at the time a 1448 weld built fully loaded. Now a 1648 grizzly. 45lb will work until you get into a 25mph wind and it has trouble keeping up . Something...

Thanks Jim!

FYI. When you run power for your helix make sure you run 10 gauge marine wire straight to the battery with the proper fuse. Helix don’t like voltage drop . Ask me how I know. Lol

I did when my boat was down I have a bow mount 360 mounted on a trolling motor bracket hung on the transom of a rental boat . I just left my helix laying in my case . Not very secure but..... well I was hard up to go fishing. Lol you know withdraw!

I have run a Powerdrive for a long time! I recently stepped up to a terrova . A much nicer motor for sure. I also ran the 1st gen of I pilot. It was a game changer for me. ( I know cliché ) but it was far from perfect but it was ok, better than being chained to the pedal. With all that said when...

I keep my helix and my I pilot remote in a pelican waterproof case . They are not cheap , but neither is what’s in it . Harbour freight/ northern have similar cases . The best protection you can get in my humble opinion . Have not cracked a screen yet and have been doing it this way for years.

I think we have all been that person! Don’t beat yourself up to bad. Been there done that ! And sooner or later I’ll go back for seconds . We call it geeking out, and we are all guilty at some point of it. Good luck in the future and tight lines !

Save your money on a new terrova. The new one is way better. If you creep down the banks a lot you’ll love I pilot/autopilot.

What?!? I’ve had a PowerDrive V2 with I pilot and I now have a terrova Bluetooth with I pilot. The pre Bluetooth where not not all that accurate of the Spot-Lock .20-25 ft off but she just had learned to compensate for it .Now the Bluetooth terrova it’s like a night and day difference. The bt...

Sorry has no problem holding in current

I have a micro on a 1448 weldbuilt mod v works like a champ has to problem holding in current

Mine is mounted on a ram mount mounted on an aluminum plate secured between to ribs on the starboard gunnel.

Thanks. I have rigid foam under it now and it helps some I just tired of the little bit of give under my foot. However the alum is only.080 so it’s not very thick. I have access to a local dist. of the blue water 26 coosa and at eve en only 1/2 thick it would have less flex than what I have I...

Hello all! Greetings from the mid Atlantic east coast! I recently found this site and glad I did! I wish it was around when I did my first Alumacraft 1232. I bought a weldbuilt 14ft mod v about 10 years ago and put an aluminum floor in it when I bought it. Well it’s quite frankly been a great...
