    Quick thought. I wonder if you could use a linear actuator with a remote.

    Great idea. Also if you could compensate for roll -ie if you have passengers or not. With stabilization tech out there, it wouldn’t surprise me if it becomes standard for ducers to compensate for angle in a few years.

    Several that I saw while browsing state that they are water-resistant and for marine applications.

    AS long as the height is right it would be cats meow!!
    I always wondered about different weight distributions and how it affects the angle of the dangle!
