I had many rangers before this with MK trolling motors on bow.
For trolling with kicker and steering with TM the ghost is terrible. I am very very adept at using the lowrance graphs (own 7 lives) with 2 ghosts. There is no good way to use the ghost for steering as the remote is terrible. I have taped a rooster type indicator on top of the indicator dial to see. But the problem is the remote moves very non precise and jerky. Plus you have no idea what speed the TM is set at on remote. If the Ghost had a remote like the MK's it would work great. I have been telling lowrance this for last 2 yrs. They claim new remote coming out. Nope.
My 2 cents. For trolling its just a poor set up.
