Minn-Kota i-pilot Terrova or PowerDrive V2?

That extra thrust is nicr to...

 I'vge tied up to a pontoon boat loaded with a dozen people on a really windy day and hit spotlock. It held us out in the middle of the lake when the pontoon's anchor couldn't.

 I've held when other - double anchored - fishing boats couldn't,

another vote for the Terrova i-pilot.

now to go buy the new handheld remote.

 Get the Terrova. Spot lock, 10 pounds of thrust,ease of depoyment and track memory are all worth it. Mrt.

the stow/deploy on the Terrova is worth the price of admission imo... no comparisson, I had 2003 PD before and the difference still amazes/pleases me.

as mentioned, the foot pedal is much nicer and easier to use

weedless wedge prop is std on Terrova, std on certain models of V2

... i-Pilot is an option I wouldn't go without

If I was to do it again, I'd get Terrova w/i-Pilot again

...no regrets

The Terrova's foot pedal is much better. If you use your's as much as I do - slipping current in rivers walleye fishing - you'll go thru almost a pedal per year. I bought at least 4,maybe 5 pedals over the years. I have two seasons on the Terrova and have the same pedal.

 However, I don't use the pedal as much with ipilot. The spot lock feature means I can stop and fish an eddy without having to use the pedal.

 I will say that I haven't had clear sailing with the Terrova. Everything but the actual trolling motor and foot pedal  has been replaced under the 2 year warrantee. US2 transducer went this fall,the GPS went out in the head ,had  to replace the whole ipilot when that happens...Well,I lost the remote myself,so that wasn't warranteed replacement.

 The more bells and whistles you have,the more there is to break....but i wouldn't want to go without the ipilot.
