Featured Replies

been looking at getting one.  was wondering if anyone on here has used one?  how the newly designed foot control worked?

I'm happy with myne so far, foot control works good, the trigger is a lil smaller than what i was used to but the speed control is like a gear and you can roll it with your foot.  I also like that both of the plugs on the foot control have screw on caps for protection.  Are you planning on the 55, 65pd?  ( i have the 65 and it scoots a 17' pretty well)

i'm looking at the 70lb with a 54" shaft.  this will be my first foot controlled tm i've always used hand controled.  i was just wondering about that new foot pedal.   thanks for the reply.

I have a new 40lb powerdrive and I am happy with it.  The foot control is fairly easy to use, but it is my first bow mount so I have not used one that rocks front back instead of left and right.  I have had times when it was on momentary and it can be hard to hold the button down and rock your foot to move and steer at the same time  I had to have the longer cord for the foot control with my boat set up, or else I would have  probably bought a normal mechanical bow mount.  I have heard several people say they are not as precise and easy to use as a normal bow mount.  All an all it is a good motor.
