Who would have thought after all the smoke cleared that a Ultrex would be the bargain of the bunch? Not sure it is the bargain of the bunch, basically pretty much the same price, only time will tell, if i were a betting man I would say the Ghost will rise to the top.

They're all going to sell products.
The Lowrance guys will buy the Ghost.
The Garmin guys will buy the Force.
The MotorGuide fans will buy the new Tour Pro or Tour.
I'm pretty certain Minn Kota has been the industry leader as far as units sold for several years, dating back to when they introduce the Fortex. They will likely continue that trend but might taper off as people buy new boats and have them rigged with the trolling motor that's linked to their electronics. The guys that keep their boats for a few/several years, they'll upgrade after enough time has gone buy to see some reviews. Competition is good. Everyone has to step their game up. We now have 4 options for waypoint anchoring

They should have consulted with me and made a actual improvement on the ultrex by having buttons you can reach with your shoes on..... ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/07/full-107866-17881-66628742_2289591334458389_134159694401896448_n.jpg) What did you use to make those? Half the time I have to reach down with my hand, especially to turn the prop on and off.

Watching the MG video again, it will incorporate with Lowrance. Not sure which models, but Ill assume its the Carbon & Live series.

Half the time I have to reach down with my hand, especially to turn the prop on and off. Its just delrin same thing cutting boards are made of you could cut up a cutting board and glue it. I originally used 2 part epoxy and as they have fell off Ive used my super glue gel. I used a skinny wheel or cut off wheel many call it on a grinder to cut them and had to put a little radius in them to get them to stick. I couldnt get my feet down in mine, it was a total pain in the [censored]. I had all these taller at first but found myself accidentally stepping on them so Ive kept cutting them down. Its a huge improvement, I dont know how anyone uses it without this mod, total pain in the rear.
