I discovered that I’m not using my trolling motor (w/Steering rod ) because I don’t like the throttle control being at the transom while everything else is in the cabin. And I usually go out solo .. But I wish I was using the trolley motor more often..

Does anyone recommend a throttle control that’s easy to install that would allow me to run everything from the driver seat in the cabin?

James

This is the one I used to use.

I use my main now because of the auto pilot and the throttle troll mode allows me to set the idle in 50 rpm increments.

That looks pretty good. Hopefully it will get to market.

I have been happy with my I-Troll system. They just came out with the g3 wireless system and you can pair it with a Tail fin steering system. Every time I have called them with a question they have either picked up the phone or called me back within a couple hours.
