Can’t remember the name for sure but think it was pin point. They came out in the late 80’s. Motor was controlled by depth finder to follow contours but instead of and before GPS they had 3 transducers in head. You set a depth couture and it would follow that depth range. They had a few issues with this and the motor. I think they eventually sold out to low range and the whole concept kinda faded until MinKota came out with the link and follow couture using the depth finder and GPS. Every once in awhile you will see one of the old pinpoint finders for sale on BBC or Walleye central.

I had one of those in 2001 at Pickwick. It had 5 transducers in the head. I also had the graph. You could set it to troll at a certain distance off the bank...troll at a certain depth. But the best feature for me was the “Creek Track”. It would lock on to channels and keep you right in it. Put a lot of crappie in the boat with it. But it was not ready for prime time. The last time I sent it in to be fixed they told me they would send me a functioning unit back but then I was on my own....or they would send me my full amount paid. I chose the money.

Does it work? We need a bow mount trolling motor desperately for our boat.
