Minn Kota all day everyday.They have had a bunch of board and switch issues with MG, I have seen that first hand numerous times(with prior boats and family) I like my lift assist and 101 MK.

Coating and structue wise MK seems to hold up better. Just MY opinion.

I have had both over the years and they have both performed well, the only reason I will only buy minn Kota now is because of the simpler design of the electrical parts and parts availability. I had an older moterguide that went bad on me and the parts were discontinued, had to junk it. My minn Kota 101 had some problems also but all I had to do was change the main board in the head witch is very simple.
