Fished the Big Bash Bash last weekend, in the first hour my buddy’s MinnKota Ultrex took a dump and had to be turned by hand the entire weekend. Needless to say we weren’t happy. They said the main motor that turns the shaft went out, and when that goes out, the main board and foot control sensor board usually fail with it. It was just out of warranty. $980 to fix it. What a freakin joke.
