I had ordered a MG tour pro that now is not out till next year(several dates changed!) Can I get some input on the Lowrance Ghost (good and bad)
so I can make a decision. Any help would be appreciated!

Any reviews?

I have one and love it, no complaints.

About a million reviews posted if you try the search feature.

Thanks scout!

I’ve had one since April and love it. It’s quiet, fast and the anchor works perfectly. Pedal is very smooth and responsive for me. I have Gen3 graphs so I have no input on the other features you can use with the Carbon or Live units. I’ve used the Ultrex on other boats and it’s a good motor too but to me the Lowrance is just more comfortable to operate but I’m a Lowrance guy if you run Birds then the Ultrex is probably best for you. I also like that it doesn’t weigh as much as an Ultrex. Just my opinion.

Happy with mine. More quiet then my previous ultrexes. Lots of power. Only got 2 months on mine though.

Here is from initial review from last December.

Since it's been roughly the same thoughts. It's been tough and haven't had any major issues.

The only problem I had was that the motor would not auto correct and level out when stowing but between the Lowrance Tech and I we figured out that there is a Bow Offset Calibration that's not in the manual. Once we calibrated then all was good again.


Bow offset calibration :
PEDAL CALIBRATION:
Initial calibration
1: Hold #1 and anchor Until lights flash
2: Hold anchor and #3 Once the anchor button flashes do a complete pedal cycle Reach down and point the lower unit (Prop) towards the mount
3: Hold anchor and #3 Until anchor button is no longer flashing
4: Hold #1 and anchor to exit.


Also, there is a new membrane that goes in-between the directional arrow and magnet that frees it up a lot more so there is no more sticking.

New:

Thanks for the input!!

Lundy, where do you live? If you’re in South Texas, you’re welcome to try mine out.

Thanks for the offer that’s awesome but live Wylie area and fish Fork most of the time

I’ve had mine for a year now, it’s been good. I initially had an issue because I did not do the proper calibrations, finally got them both done and it spotlocked great. Now it does make a funky noise when I hit brush and stumps with it. As of now, I’d buy one again. I don’t have mine linked to the graphs, so I can’t say how those features are.
