I have a 55# Minnkota Autopilot/Copilot that is less than a year old.
I ran it for about an hour yesterday, moved to a new fishing spot and then I was not able to steer with the foot pedal.
I had plenty of battery power, the power to propel the boat was there, but it would not steer using the footpad. Tried autopilot and that did not work (have never really used it though) and when I switched to copilot nothing worked at all - I think I had it set up correctly.
Is there something particular in the unit that may have gone bad?
It is under warranty so I'm not worried about any expense, but need it or a new one ready to go for the muskie opener on Saturday.
Was at the Shagawa lake boat launch and these two ducks came right up to me. I think someone has been feeding them.
I also noticed that one of them has an eye that is partially shut.
I appreciate that. I actually stopped last night but I didnt get back to town til 5:45 and you were closed. Were open when I went by to bring the girls to school this morning so I grabbed eight packs. Probably be way to many dont remember them being so big.
