    Default Any opinions on minn Kota newly improved Spot Lock


    I have a two year old terrova which I really like! However I have a deep v boat which gets pushed around by the wind easily, I use the first generation spot lock a lot but it doesn’t keep me on top of a brush pile. Has anyone switched to the newer version? If so what are your opinions

    Don’t mean to be a downer but my new Ulterra has been problematic since I bought it concerning spot lock. Minn Kota Service center rebuilt it as several moving parts malfunctioned. It has had three control heads and does every thing except spot lock well. I may have bought a lemon but I don’t consider investing $2,500 for trolling motor, batteries, bank charger, installation (twice as it was rewired with larger gauge wire), and week’s of downside plus spot lock varying 10+ feet to be a good investment. Just saying...

    Have an Ultrex with spotlock, best thing since sliced bread. Foot pedal and remote, best of both worlds imo.

    Is that a Gen 2 Ulterra?
