No experience with the Ulterra but thought having a transducer and wire along the shaft gets complex, with my terrova I use a bow mount lift. When I leave the access deploy motor and have it up as far as the left allows. Then raise and lower with a switch as I arrive at spots, love it as when I move the gps is always on and can record a track if wanted. The ulterra does not allow for this, stored position GPS is off.

So with the terrova and a bow mount lift go the bow once when I launch and again when I trailer or go to the harbor. Don't get me wrong the Ulterra is slick but like the bow lift for how I fish.
