About a year ago we bought one for my father in law for his birth day.....not even sure if he put it on his boat yet. I have one of those bigfoot ones and been having it for a little over 4 years and still going strong!

These are much easier to operate compared to the big foot. Handle stays in one place...push to turn left,pull to turn right.

I agree. I will get one once if and when my bigfoot breaks. As I rembered, it was close to 100 bucks if not a little more.

130 bucks...well worth it. My dad has one of the originals that is 10+ years old and it is in great shape. Aluminum and stainless last a long time.
