    I agree that maneuvering can be of concern, but that is all dependent on your skill level when it comes to trailering. I would highly suggest the tandem over the single for blowouts since I just had one, 3 tires supporting the load is much safer than 1 IMO. In the end it will depend on your situation, can you afford it, can you trailer it (skill/towing vehicle) and is it worth it to you.

    I had single under the supra and it was a breeze to move around in the garage. there's a double on the current boat and I can't budge that thing more than a few inches and to try and back it up at all, forget it. gotta be a good driver.

    I know a guy here local that is looking at a mondo for next spring and he wants single to be able to get it into the 3rd stall since you can't pour a 3car driveway here in greenbay. it'll be a breeze to move around and we don't have more than a few miles to the launch ramp.

    assumption here that digital pro is paddlewheel based and the other is gps. having had both(perfect pass in the supra, not digital pro), gps is the way to go imo.

    I never found the paddlewheel to be that accurate. gps seems to hold a much steadier speed.

    Unless you ride on a river or have something blocking the gps(really fun goes crazy!), bridges, trees, etc,etc.....

    simple--on boat backup. Sa you trailer 2 hrs to the lake, back in and hit the key and nothing happens, then you realize you left the key on last time out, so now instead of scrambling to find a jump start you reach over and switch to batt 2 and she fires right up. worth it right there. And, when Exile starts shipping box's your set for that large stereo--somethings just happen and that's one of them--lol.
