    I have an Ulterra on my Ranger I’ll never own another one ! It’s ruined 2 trips so far by doing what they’re known for and that’s not deploying or stowing. My friend just got done taking his to the service center 3 times and it’s the Quest version. They’re wonderful when they work but totally screw you when they don’t. Never again 👍

    I would drop the parallel connection and have each battery to a busbar then pull from that busbar for inverters etc... It's proven your batteries will last longer as every amp doesn't go through each battery so 1/2 the work with 2 and 1/4 with 4.

    If you make a living fishing tournaments and such, then yes it might be worth it. If you're a weekend angler out with the family, I highly doubt it. Imo the industry is pricing itself out of reach for those, who have kept it alive for generations. The working men and women simply trying to send some quality time with their families.

    Two years later this motor is going strong ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf Just uploaded a video of it after 2 years. We use it probably a dozen days each year on our small raft.-original review- We got this motor the other day and tested it out. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems good to me. It has all the features advertised - the motor housing is metal. We will see how it performs longer term and I will revise this review if needed. Some initial observations:- Good thrust, moves our boat around really well- It comes with a circuit breaker but no switch - so there's no way to kill the motor other than yanking the connection off the battery. I installed an inline switch.- The mount bracket is plastic and I worry it might break- There are a number of plastic parts that I worry about, but the most important ones are metal or some kind of composite

    If I've only got a rod for 1-3oz and a 3500 spinning reel with 30lb braid with 50lb leader, what size doc style lure you recommend? I've got a 9" doc at 3.5 oz I think but bought a 10ft rod to handle 1-5 oz I think or 1-4 oz lures and never fished large lures in my life like this. So what can you suggest? Budget won't allow me to buy anything new and that 10ft rod has a 6000 penn battle with 50lb braid and 50lb leader for that specific lure and larger metals.
