You literally couldnt give me a 60" one to put on my boat. My friend has one and its heavy as hell, long as hell and just a giant PIA. Ill stick with the 45" ones.

I have a 60" on my Ranger RT 188 and love it, but mine is manual deploy, so I can put it at any depth I want. The longer shaft really comes in handy when I use spotloc in high winds...and when I'm in shallow water I can adjust it just below the surface,,..works great.

52 for sure. Point the boat into the wind on a deep brushpile, hit spotlock, and walk to the back of the boat and you and your partner can cast with the wind. You cant do that with a 45".
