Check out Defender Industries. They're offering the X-5 for $667 + shipping. It's the lowest price I've seen. <defender.com>

Yow! Maybe I'll buy another one!Quote:

Sub, this is your primary piece of gear for singlehanding. Even if you can find a used one in pristine condition (and I haven't seen any used X-5's), it won't be enough cheaper than these prices to make up for not having a new unit with a warranty.
IMHO of course.
Thanks All for the advice! I decided to buy a new one locally at West Marine. Even got the extended warranty for the unfortunate accidents. Now, I just have to install it. Looking forward to joining you guys downwind and doing headsail changes now.
For those who have a remote, how do you like it?
For those who don't have a remote, what's the contingency plan when being dragged through the water?
