I've checked that out (and it looks very good). But I also came across this other option yesterday.

https://wi-rb.com/product/rb/

I sent a message to the company saying that I had questions, and they got right back to me by phone. Had a great conversation with one of their engineers. They have a 2 year warranty, and a willingness to let me try it out and reutrn it if it does not work out, so I'm going to take a chance on it and see how it works out. It's about half the price of the other alternatives, and easily removes from the mounting for trailering so that's appealing.

I'll report back my experience after having it out on the water for a few months. Thanks again for all the feedback and ideas.

Nice that they are allowing you to try it and return it if not satisfied.
Please report back your experience. Early reviews had problems with the device. Hopefully, they have worked out the problems.
