    I wish I had spent the extra money. I got my terrova about a year ago. Didn’t think I care about the stow or deploy, but now I wish I had it. Being able to pick up and move is a job sometimes and that would make it that much easier.

    If you really want the response of a cable steer, then yes. That is the primary difference.

    Unless you were talking about the Ulterra, which has the auto stow/deploy.

    As I gt older my joints hurt more, especially sitting fishing. I bought the Ulterra for the easy stow. With I link it puts me right on a waypoint. Yea I cried till I used it for the first time. Now I absolutely love it. One man boat launch is just so kool. Yes I do it.

    I too bought a Terrova a few months ago, and wish I'd spent the extra money on the Ulterra. As stated above, the auto deploy and stow would be well worth the extra $$ in my opinion.

    Not only that but I’m waiting on the mega 360 to come out, and so far on HB website the terrova isn’t listed as a trolling motor that it can be attached to.

    If you plan to get the Mega 360, the Ultrex is the way to go unless you want to get a 3rd party mounting system for the 360.
