80 lb Min-Kota Terrova with iPilot. If that's to pricey look at the PowerDrive V2's.

A price range would help. And what type and conditions do you fish? I fish the Mississippi and the more power the better to hold against the current. But a flat water lake does not take much to pull a boat. If its in a tourny though then its a different story. So what are your needs?

Being it is a stratos, the hull was probably designed around a cable steer trolling motor, prefered by bass anglers. I am surprised that one wasn't already installed. Not that a power drive type won't fit, just verify you dont have any mounting issues. If you do plan on mostly bass fishing and being in the bow, you should consider a cable steer. If walleye, crappie, or just recreational fishing, a power drive type is fine. The I-pilot has some great features, if the price doesn't scare you.
