Guys, I'm just days away from hopefully picking up a bow mounted trolling motor. I've rec'd lots of good advice on what to look for...with all that in mind, any chance I can limit it to at least ONE brand? Is one of these better than the other???<br /><br />THANKS!

I've only used Minn-Kota. Have 3 of them right now, 2 are over 15 years old, one is an "autopilot". 2 have the "maximizer circuit. Use them in saltwater and freshwater even thought they are not rated for it (saltwater). All 3 still run fine, and I would have no reason to switch brands.
