Electric motors
Does anyone have contacts with a dealer for Minn Kota electric motors? Does not appear to be many places that sell them in Perth.
Re: Electric motors
They've got them at BCF Spenc.

Re: Electric motors
Just a follow up, I bought a 55lb minn kota ipilot and love it. A couple of added benefits was the lack of hours I put on the main motor while in Exmouth. Normally would put on 50+ hours on the motor during a boneheads trip while this one was only 20 odd hours. We fished out of the boat all bar 1 day. This also saves money on fuel as a little extra bonus.
Charging the second battery from the motor worked a treat as we fished with the electric hard each day and I did not have to charge the battery once, (thanks for the advice Brian Harwood
