purchasing wireless MOB kit

After nearly going over and being out alone, I would like to install a wireless kill switch. From what I can research it seems the Fell Wireless Mob would be a good choice. However it is currently “not available” at West Marine, Bass Pro Shop, Tackle Direct, etc... It can be bought on line at some random no name places. Any idea what is going with that? Or does the company or product have problems ?
thanks

Like all boat stuff, sold out or in short supply. The MOB is a great product, I have it on my Grady. It's even backordered on the FELL website.

Hello, we just installed a 1stmate for a client, after the initial set up it worked well, Fell Marine make them for Mercury, there are two options, one for Mercury with Smartcraft and the other for all other motors. Expensive and a little fiddly at first but now we have done one, the next will be much easier, you will need to download the app for the initial set up. Hope this helps.
