I am picking up a new terrova ipilot with the link and Gps puck. I have a 3 year old ipilot I’m selling tomm. Mostly want the accuracy of the new ones. So I’m wondering, do I waste money on a Humminbird router for that and my 3 fish finders or is the new ipilots accurate without it? (Back locater is connect to console, front is a helix 7 ice (non networkable) connected to trolling motor).

Minn Kota Gps puck..router needed still?
As far as the cord wrapping around the motor mine with either feel the resistance of the cord tighten or it remembers how many times it's spun it then will unwind itself and reposition. I know the feeling sometimes you think the cord will come out from being twisted up but then it unwinds itself.
Took my new Minn Kota out on the lake today. Got everything calibrated. What a difference with this new motor compared to my old one. It is what everybody says it's just holds you right there. Thanks for everybody's help!
It was only 33 degrees out there with wind blowing they said it was 9 miles an hour but more like 15 cold!!!
Jbird, maybe post your old Terrova on Craig's List, might be better off to sell it and upgrade. There a lot of people who can't afford new Trolling Motors who would probably be interested. My brother just upgraded and I sold his old 2007 PowerDrive for $385. No auto-pilot or spot lock.
You can order an upgrade kit for older Terrovas. I think they are like $700. That's what I want to do with my 2011 Terrova. But i would also need to buy a new foot pedal which would push my price to $900. And, yes, I do use my foot pedal just as much as the remote. Bad thing is that I just replaced my remote last year. $$$$$
