    Ultrex Delay

    Just wondering if anyone has any insight on the delays in shipping the Ultrex 52" 36 volt? My original ship date was 1/12 then moved to 1/27 and now moved up to 1/20. with it changing week to week i am thinking it will shift further before shipping. I was just wondering with production runs they should be able to give hard dates. unless manufacturer is placing preferred dealers in front.

    When I was working with Ranger on my cover, Lisa said she had to get mine figured out because the word on the floor was that they were going to be shipping a lot of new boats with the Ultrex on them and the covers needed to be different. Maybe all of the boat builders are gearing up for the Spring building season and they have precedence over the individuals.

    Tackle Warehouse shows a March 11 stock date for all Ultrex Models. This is new, they have just been showing out of stock until today.

    Well lets hope they stick to the 1/20 ship date and don't move it again. Just cant help but get the feeling if they keep moving around ship dates that their bumping other orders to the front of the line and pushing others back.

    John at Jonestrollingmotor@cableone.net got me a Ultrex with I-pilot link with a 45" shaft within a week. Not sure about a 52" shaft? Contact John and he will assist as much as possible!

    We either have, or have had all the Ultrexes available for shipping. As of yesterday, we were out of stock on the 112/52, but should be in soon. Don't have an actual ship date.
    Thanks

    The more I read this kind of stuff, I am sooooo glad I ordered mine just before Christmas. Don't worry, I promise it will be worth the wait!

    TW says they ship in order of "order placement" I ordered one as soon as the 25% off started on 11/25 so far date has changed from 12/22 to 1/20 now says 3/11??? Have they shipped a 45",112 Ipilot w/ link to anyone yet? Based on my order date which by the way was minutes after it opening up I can't be far from the top of the list. Bout to just say the hell with the $600 and buy elsewhere. Matter of fact if any board sponsors have one on hand let me know. I may just cxl the TW order.

    FYI:
    You can have a Ultrex 60" shaft cut to 52" by a Minn Kota Service Rep.
    Check if 60" is available. . .

    Well doesn't look like mine will be shipping on the 20th as expected. its unbelievable how hard it is to get info on this and how Minn Kota cannot supply distributors with hard delivery dates.

    I ordered the MK Ultrex i-Pilot Trolling Motor 36V 112 lbs 45" from TW on 9/3. Mine also shows a 3/11 expected due date. I guess I'm glad it's Winter.

    Wow unbelievable!! was just notified ETA of my order jumped from 1/20/17 till 2/10/17. i'm dumbfounded how this is even possible. I have cancelled my order for now and i guess i will wait until Minn Kota actually starts producing them or something. anyone hear of a distributor that gets some in let me know. 112/52" ipilot without link
