I have dual 10pp on my boat. Started with one, which was great. But with one power pole, you will still pivot. Once I added the second one, it was a huge difference.
One added benefit (depending on where you launch) is being able to use the power poles when docking to keep aft end of the boat from swinging out.
They are stupid expensive, but I’d do the 10’ again, even though I never use them that deep. Once water is over like 8’ I’m using the spot lock. make sure you consult with an expert on the mounting brackets. I installed it myself, but wasn’t aware that they sold the bracket in 2 parts, so I actually cracked the first ones since I didn’t have the braces on them (dropping them while drifting too fast).
I haven’t tried the raptors, but it’s probably worth looking at if you have minn kota products already, especially the hummingbird stuff
