The name "trolling
motor" is misleading. The electric trolling motor is
undoubtedly the most misnamed item on the BASS MASTERS
Classic boats. That's because it isn't used for trolling
at all, but rather to move or position the boat in
response to the angler's every whim. It has been one of
the most relied upon tools on a bass boat. Early-day
tournament anglers described the advantages of having it
on the front of the boat versus the rear with the
analogy, "it is a lot easier to pull a chain, than to
push one." |

MotorGuide® Digitally Re-mastered. A
dramatic shift in trolling motor design — one you
can’t get anywhere else and don’t want to be caught
without.
Digital Guardian™ is a self-contained, sealed
module in the lower unit controlling speed and
monitoring vital motor components together in one
protected location, eliminating the sonar
interference commonly associated with analog circuit
boards.
Digital Guardian monitors your motor’s amp draw,
heat dissipation, output and other vital parameters.
The result is a motor that self regulates — a
cooler, quieter, more efficient running motor over
an extended service life.
|
The future is
here — and it’s 100% digital. Today, you’ll find
proven digital technology in almost all advanced
electronics. Digital means more than just better
performance, it’s improved reliability, and when it
comes to trolling motors, only MotorGuide has it.

There’s a Minn Kota trolling motor to meet virtually
any fishing application and personal taste. But no
matter which model you choose, every Minn Kota trolling
motor comes with built-in features and benefits that
give you a leg up on the competition and more time on
the water. We call it Advantage Minn Kota. Click here to
learn more about these Minn Kota standards of
excellence.
Weedless Wedge™
Designed by the legendary Roland Martin. This is the
only prop that is truly 100% weedless, without
compromising power. The patented, swept-back design of
the rotors pushes weeds away, allowing you to
effortlessly pass through at any speed. Without
“chopping” its way through heavy vegetation, the
Weedless Wedge™ keeps you fishing while conserving
valuable battery power.
 Bowguard
360°™ Breakaway Mount
A Minn Kota exclusive! Breaks away on impact from any
direction, protecting your motor, shaft and boat.
Provides uninterrupted fishing as the motor will
automatically reset itself. No more leaning over the bow
of your boat on your hands and knees wrestling with
resetting your motor. Easily detaches for added
convenience.
 Cool,
Quiet Power
Compare the brushes, windings and commutators of a
Minn Kota motor to any other motor and you’ll see one
thing: more size. These larger internal components
dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended
battery power and longer motor life. Our unique bearing
system reduces friction to cut down on fish-spooking
noise. With Minn Kota’s cool, quiet power they’ll never
hear you coming.
Maximizer™ Technology
Conventional trolling motor design (speed coil
technology) delivers a constant, steady flow of power to
the motor, regardless of the speed setting. This
constant flow results in wasted power and excessive heat
— both of which reduce your time on the water and the
life of your motor. And with speed coil technology, you
are limited to a pre-determined number of speed
settings.
Minn Kota variable speed motors utilize our exclusive
Maximizer technology to deliver the precise amount of
power needed at any speed, along with infinitely
variable speed settings. You get the ability to “dial
up” the precise speed setting you desire and your motor
runs cooler with no wasted power. By properly regulating
the amount of power that is delivered to your motor, you
get up to five times longer run time on a single charge.
 Indestructible
Composite Shaft — Guaranteed for Life!
Pound for pound, our ultra high-yield composite
material has been tested to be three times the strength
of steel. Virtually indestructible, it flexes on impact
and then returns to its original position. Ideal for
both freshwater and saltwater applications, our
indestructible composite shaft will not kink, break,
rust or corrode — guaranteed for life!
