[QUOTE="jethro, post: 472567, member: 12381"] I finally got to put my 36v Ulterra and Helix 9 to work yesterday. Unreal. It's a total gamechanger not having to deal with boat control anymore! It was blowing 10 with gusts to 20 and I was on a very big lake. The motor did not have a single bit of trouble with the conditions. First thing I did was find the roughest, windiest spot on the lake and test the spot lock. It kept me 10' off the rocks with a hard wind in my face and big waves. That is just incredible. Then I trolled using my gas kicker to push, it was flawless. Autopilot with cruise control! I trolled for about 6 hours and I don't think the battery bank showed any drop in voltage from when I started, at least using the ipilot remote as a gauge. I can control from the head unit which is great because I spend most of my time looking at that screen anyway. No fish, surface temp was 40.4F so its gonna be slow fishing for a bit. This lake only iced out 5 days ago. [/QUOTE]
