I need to come-up with TM for the boat (16' Deep-V). My situation is alittle "weird" in that I have not only back problems, but had a knee replacement in February that didn't go "well" :roll: . So not only can I not bend-over, but I've lost about 1/2 the flex (bend) in my right knee, and it's pretty much painful all the time, but any "twisting" makes it worse. From what I've been told, I don't see either situation improving.....
I can't decide on a foot control, or tiller with a tilt-handle on the bow. Money is a major factor, or I'd just get a remote & problem solved. Anyone ever have a similar problem, or want to share your thoughts? I'm even considering using a transom mount since the rear casting deck is narrow, and I could set on the deck & easily (at least I think) reach the tiller TM, and could always get an extension handle. Transom mounts are generally cheaper than bow-mounts anyway. It don't bother me fishing out of the back of the boat, matter of fact, it'd be easier then stepping up onto the front deck.
Thanks
