Goodday! I've just joined up! SO, I'm totally new here & I DON'T even know IF I'm in the right Forum/section for this topic. I just bought myself a brand-new 2-seater 3.7m kayak & now I'm in the market for a 60 lb. (thrust) trolling motor. [I'm real eager to start my fishing "adventure" sometime soon!. IF I'm NOT in the "correct" dept. here, please advise.
I was looking at a STRIKER 60 lb thrust motor, with some rather decent electronics [incl. 5 forward speeds, 3 reverse speeds, screen monitor for amount of battery charge left, etc. However, when I read the several reviews, I started having some reservations. M7y sue is exclusively salt/sea water. More of the reviews (than not) indicate a problem with quick, early rust of metal parts.
DOES anyone know about this?? IF this is all true, IS there any comparable Trolling motor (with pricing comparable in terms of power, features, etc.) that does NOT the SAME rusting problem(s)?
THANXX for anyone's experience/expertise/insight! Much appreciated,
Lone
