Default Re: Spot Lock??

I know a few who have them and yes a game changer and they wouldn't have a boat without it.

Not sure what size boat you have and where you intend to use it but some with larger boats that fish in open bays or ocean when the wind gets up there it won't hold the spot. Depending on the size of the motor and how long you intend to run it, you maybe looking upgrading your batteries.

One side benefit of these motors is if you're trying to drift fish and there is no current or wind to push you along, you can create you own drift...You can also use it to overcome drifting in the wrong direction, like in a wind against tide situation where the wind is pushing you in the opposite direction of the tide. This could certainly take a bad day of fishing and make it a good one...
