[QUOTE="Buster, post: 507533, member: 27745"] I have a 14' Lund from 1966. Recently put a 12v Terrova on it with iPilotLink. There is no question even the 12v overpowers the boat. At certain speeds, when tracking on a heading or following contours, the motor hits an oscillating feedback loop and overadjusts more and more. SpotLock will frequently wrap the motor around multiple times. Fully loaded with 3 people it's less of an issue but when I'm fishing alone it's a real problem. When alone the gross weight is barely 500 pounds, so take that into consideration. It's just one person's experience with an outlier setup. [/QUOTE]
