I've seen this thing floating around. The idea is it adds expensive functionality to your cheap electric trolling motor. It just replaces the existing head and tiller handle to add internal GPS and remote steering.
I would love to add a bow mount system for steering and use my T8 for thrust. However, it looks like this thing isn't compatible with bow mount motors because those typically have a foot pedal for control. They make bow mounts for transom mounted trolling motors so I guess you could bow mount a cheap kicker mount MK C2 or something.
I haven't actually priced a Minn Kota or comparable setup but I'm guessing it's a lot more.
Edit: to whatever moderator just edited my post to break the link, good job..... I wasn't trying to advertise a non forum sponsor. I just wanted people to be able to see what I was talking about.
