Installed the minnkota riptide 24v w/ co-pilot.
Love it!!!

Just used it last week and out-fished a 40ft vessel anchored nexted to me.
They tried to achor on a local rock structure but the scope of the anchor line put them passed the rock.

The wind was blowing from the NW, so I pointed the bow NW, set the autopilot to the wind, and controled my position over the structure.
It was nice fishing off the stern w/o anchoring.
I just adjusted the speed of the trolling motor on my wrist!!

The guys on the other boat could'nt understand why I was gettin hooked-up.

The auto-pilot w/ co-pilot is perfect for trolling lakes or fishing structure.
Good luck.
