Power Poles are much more functional... two weeks ago I forgot I had my PP's down and took off... felt really sluggish, looked back and didn't see anything unusual, then just went ahead and punched it. Still felt odd and then it finally dawned on me... duhhhh... raised my poles! Can't do that with Talons... just saying. Why can't you take off with the Talons down? Not that anyone should want to.

I will be purchasing these for my boat. I can't justify spending that much. I had. A PP on my last boat and didn't use it enough to spend that kind of money but there are occasions I need something. They make a part that attaches to the outboard and looks like like a PP. http://kingpinanchors.com/

And yes I drove halfway across Tawakoni with my Talons down before I noticed. Raised them while still on plane no problem.

Get an Ultrex and forget the poles. They make a bunch of noise and never seem to work well as folks think.
