I am trying to decide on which to put on my boat... Ive heard that the powerpoles have had a problem leaking and Ive heard there have been some problems with the talons too.. Anyone have any opinions, suggestions or information that would be helpful to me ....

Thanks

I have two Talons. If recommending to a friend at this point I would go with Power Poles.

Jason,
They are just way too top heavy and shake and vibrate a lot. I had to get the new mounting hardware because you couldn't keep the bolts holding them in place from vibration loose. We will see how the cable drive holds up.
