I tried to book for Feb 16 and it would not let me book that date, it says partially booked in the little box below, not sure what to do, I have a tourney on that day.

It will let you tomorrow, I think 30 days out is all it will let you

I lost count Saturday of how many times I said �I wish I had an ultrex�.

Thanks

I lost count wishing I had a Fortex again. f-in POS Ultrex. Broken again. During a tourney Saturday. I had to idle into less than 8ft spots and pole down. For 5-6 hours. Then....it worked fine again.

This time it�s gonna be a warranty shops problem. Lol.

Crazy never had any ultrex problems

My brother has his in shop , only 3 months old .

I kept my x5 after letting my buddy be the genie pig of owning an ultrex for a year.still can't beat it when its not broken

Right. When it works.

I�ve replaced the folllowing.

Cable sets 2x
On/off switch
Pivot bushings 2x
Lift assist strut
Cable jacket

This time
The prop shaft is exhibiting fore and aft play almost a half inch
Cable jacket has cracked again
Pivot bushings are creaking again
Motor shuts off for extended periods of time. It�s not the MOO button or the magnetic switch(that needs constant adjusting)
Spot lock is severely wandering. Way more than normal.

Jeez. I wish Lowrance would release there Ultrex killer sooner.

That and the Garmin/powerpole one are what I'm waiting on, until then I will stick with my reliable motorguide tour model

Sounds like Steez is rougher on that Ultrex than the ole Jeep he towed the boat with that day he took me fishin�...

To be the guinea pig on another brand new high tech product? Not me!

Does Toyota have a trolling motor coming out?

Now Steez I've seen several post on here where you admitted you were rough on your Ultrex so maybe it's not all the Ultrex fault. You can only run it into rocks and bend the shaft so many times before it needs attention. I've been running mine for a year now and works as good as the day I bought it. I definitely fish more and longer since I've had it. I'm just sayin' be nicer to your Ultrex and it will be nice to you.

I�ll be the first to admit that I have been using the thing ...a lot.

The things I�m having issues with are things I believe I have not cause of. I replace propellers often, bought both sets of cables. And the bushings COULD have been a result of using the thing in timber.

The other stuff, even cosmetic things I haven�t mentioned, are QC issues. I have also replaced the plastic sides and the nose �ramp� on the mount due to severe fading. The boat is covered when not in use, it it�s used more than covered.

I don�t care if the trolling motor costs $4000! I want to fish worry free.
