 Minn Kota Riptide w/ I-Pilot
I sold my old minn kota riptide & upgraded to the wireless model with I-Pilot.
There are many great features with this setup. I can push a button & it will remember my track & I can go back & fish it again just by pressing a button. There is also an anchor lock mode where if you drift 5' from where you pushed the button the motor will engage & bring you back to that point keeping you on the fish!
Can't wait to use it this weekend should keep me from fighting with the TM and provide more fishin' time.
No installed pics yet, will have to upload those tomorrow.

The unit itself has an internal gps, very windy down here this weekend may not get to fully test all it's features. This remote has 15 buttons and a digital display. I'm lost

Yes the quick release is on there it's a must. The boat hasn't touched the water I'm taking it back to the shop Monday to finish up the lights.
