Default Sportsman Powerpole VS. Pro Powerpole
I'm looking into getting a power pole and I'm just curious as ton what the big difference is between the 2, is it simply the fact that the pro has a remote and the sportsman is a fixed switch?
Just curious if anyone has any feedback they can provide on the 2 from experience or knowledge.
Thanks ahead of time!!

The sportsman is made cheaper than the pro. We have installed a few sportsman models and I would pay the extra for the pro model. The sportsman pump is alot louder and slower. Also,the pro model is ran by a dash mounted switch,the remote is a option. The remote is nice but not worth it IMO. Power pole offers a foot switch to mount on the front deck like a trolling motor on/off switch. Much more cost effective.
