Thanks Cliff. So what you need is just the lower end, the prop, and a meathod of controlling it right? I was thinking about a 4 channel controller to control all four and use joy sticks, ut I might be able to rewire the controller you are getting and hook it up to the joysticks.</div><div>Thanks,</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1431613620178_5332">Scott Waters</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div><br clear="none"></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1431613620178_5334"><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1431613620178_5333" style="color: rgb(87, 87, 87); font-size: 9px;">Sent from my U.S. Cellular® Smartphone</div></div><div></div><br clear="none"><br clear="none">-------- Original message --------<br clear="none">From: Cliff Redus via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> <br clear="none">Date:05/14/2015 8:38 AM (GMT-06:00) <br clear="none">To: Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles@psubs.org> <br clear="none">Cc: <br clear="none">Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Minkota <br clear="none"><br clear="none"><div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yiv4139858140yqt6533168422" id="yiv4139858140yqt39868"><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><div><span></span></div><div></div><div id="yiv4139858140yui_3_16_0_1_1431608792635_4749" dir="ltr">I recently ordered four Minn Kota 101 lower units for the R300 upgrade.
