    Default Wireless MotorGuide Trolling Motor


    Looked at the BassPro Shop today and could not decide on which one to buy. Does anyone have any pro's or con's on Wireless MotorGuide Trolling Motor verses Minn Kota Co-Pilot system?

    I have a power drive MK, 40 lb. My best advice is to fish it yourself if you can find someone that will let you work the front of the boat. Had mine 3 yrs, still gittin it. Power drives are an alternative to a manual foot control. Pro's and cons both ways. With auto pilot and transducer is the way to go if you like the motor and can swing the $.

    MInn Kota is a quieter motor than the Motor guide. I now have a motor guide on this boat and i wished a 1000 times over i had swapped them.

    Hi.
    The little key ring control is fantastic! But like the post above
    said; if you can afford the autopilot - please get it. I have the
    co-pilot. It's great, but, you will find yourself over correcting
    from time to time in the wind. Oh yeah, MK is my choice.

    Gloves up!

    Rick.
