[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 151272, member: 55"] I'm of the opinion that the only reason Motorguide is still in business is because they are a branch of Brunswick, which also owns a bunch of other boat manufacturers, (Boston Whaler, Lowe, Lund, Crestliner, Triton, Sea Ray, Bayliner, etc), and thus have the trolling motors sold as a package (along with the Merc outboards), on these boats, which constitute a large part of the market. I believe I heard it recently that Triton offers the Minn Kota "upgrade" (can anyone confirm the validity of that?). I would think that if Motorguides weren't such an inferior motor, that they would have the Minn Kota "option." [/QUOTE]
