    Interesting, another authorized vendor said they are still set for mid/late November release. I’m hoping your info is correct though.

    Been reading the adds and reading posts. Can anyone tell me how the Ghost gets 60% more run-time than regular trolling motors? Everything I read about brushless vs. Brushed motors is; Brushless motors are about 10% more efficient than Brush type motors. What else is involved besides the motor type in regards to efficiency?

    Understand that not to mention Marketing claims and lab results not mirroring reality. Unless they were comparing a non PWM motor to the Ghost that is a definite stretch. Hoping for an head to head comparison by a somewhat independent source. Can't compare till it is actually a thing either. Bob

    Ohhh, but you have known that they have had one in the works. Trust me, you’ve told us many many times.

    Now, I’m not saying I blame you for waiting on it, because it will probably be awesome. But I am tired of waiting on something other than the ultrex. I had a Terrova and that thing turned me against MK.

    the ulrex was solid for me up till this year when i broke both steering cables and the gps board failed a week prior to the cables. Im ready for something new and improved latest technology backed by the best cust service in the business. (For sure lowrance cant claim that ..coming from a guy with 4 lowrances on his boat)

    It has a flux capacitor that generates 1.3 giggawatts of power.

    Based on Power-Pole's still no delivery of Charge, who knows when it would be available. It has been over two years since they announced Charge.

    A major plus for the brushless motors is if they reduce interference. I haven't read enough about the technology to know if they still use PWM ... the PWM seems to be the primary cause of interference.

    I'm actually looking into getting a new trolling motor, but I'm sure the ghost will be out of my price range.

    If they are taking pre-orders on them, I'm thinking they can probably give you a quote if interested.

    Did you mean 47"? Has anyone confirmed what lengths will be released in the future?
