Has anyone tried the goplus trolling motors. Found them on eBay and they claim 86lbs for $100. As hard as I am on trollers if they pull like 86 lbs should I could handle buying one every year easier than repairs and afford a back up.
 
Did it ever cross your mind as to why these are $100?
wouldn't be near as hard on the wallet to keep a few spares. honestly there's nothing to a trolling motor. I'm sure there's room in the market for some competition, especially for us since we have no use for ipilot, or sonar built in or any of that fancy stuff.
actually found a few other brands of trollers on fleabay that I had not heard of. this one looks cool is it came in a 52" shaft.

maybe im missing something, but i still find it dumb that the have come out with a trolling motor that a guy can just plug into his generator for crying out loud...can you imagine the complications and weight that would save?

not sure there are enough bass fishermen with genny's on the boat to support R&D and marketing that. Would be great for bow fishermen tho!

I just know where I live warranty doesn't do much for me by the time I get it to a shop I'm spending enough on shipping or gas to get it there I probably could just buy What I need and do it myself. Somebody could probably still design and make a living making 120v motors. The bowfishing community is only growing larger.
