my I pilot mostly used offshore reef anchor...

if I was buying one again I would disassemble the steering section and lubricate the internals. there is plastic gears and tiny metal shafts that rust.

I still don’t know why they don’t put a trolling motor on the back of the boat too. Twice the speed when traveling and it could spot lock orientation both relative to the wind or to the bank.

Well let's just add bow thrusters and pod drives and a full on DP3 system while we're at it!

I don’t know what a dp3 system is, but it sounds like something I need on my 14’ Jon boat.

If anyone else is looking Hodges marine has a few in stock. No tax. Just ordered a replacement Terrova 112v for the frontier. Mines about done.
