Hey, noyopacific… we appreciate the feedback. We have had good success with ours as well. Thanks again for the comment.

Thanks for the testimony… we love ours too, still going strong!

Thanks for the comment, @tribalncgaming… we appreciate you watching

Appreciate the ‘at a boy… thanks for watching

That’s great advice, thanks for the comment!

We agree, LED would be much better in the sunlight. Thanks for watching.

Don Gorsegner we love ours... it has plenty of power which I was skeptical of... hope you have a great season!

Thank you for subscribing... we really appreciate it. Hope the review was helpful.

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 u do fishing lessons ,? Looking to get away from the north east for the winter

@@AmazonWebService98 you may want to look for better instructors than us for consistent fishing success. There are many good guides in and around Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake-great bass, crappie, bluegill and cat fishing… hope this helps. Good luck!

You have a good point, our motor was already deployed. This was not done on purpose, but you bring up a good point-they are not easy to get in the water. This model does not deploy hands free. We launch the boat, then put the trolling motor in the water at a shallow depth; send it out; spot lock; park the truck, then come back and bring the boat to you. Not as easy without the auto deploy. Thanks for the comment and q’s.

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 thanks for the reply. I’ve been doing some research and figured that out, most the new trolling motors look very similar so its hard to distinguish which ones deploy hands free. Looks like just the super high end one like the Ultrex. Do you know any auto deploy models/brands that are more budget friendly? I’ve looked at motorguide but it’s basically the same price and if I’m spending that much im going with minn kota.

@@proambass8027 your research is spot on with ours. Sadly, only the high end models provide the hands free deployment. Also, like you said, both MinnKota and Motorguide are pricy. Good luck and let us know what you buy. Thanks again.

We appreciate the “at a boy”… thanks for watching

Hey Hydro… after years with the foot control, it takes some getting used to, but in short, yes. It allows more room on your bow plus no cable to mess with. Spot lock is awesome if you have never used one. Thanks for the comment.

callmecamo2 hope it helped...

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 thing has spot lock right? or the ability to kinda act like a anchor ?

@@AmazonWebService98 yes, it has an anchor lock… it is not as accurate as Motor Guide, but works well for us-3-4 feet.

Quack Chaser thanks for the shout out... we hope they are helpful... appreciate you guys watching

Drone Videos In Florida no, the remote came with it... there is not a foot pedal. It’s a nice rig.

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 Your amazon tag is for a foot pedal mini kota. Probably why he is asking that.

Slurpey ok, thank you... We’ll switch that ASAP... appreciate the heads up

We have not compared it to the Terrova, but it is certainly contrary when it comes to deploying into the water. Stowing is not as bad. Thank you for the comment. Let us know how it goes.

Levi this is a 12 volt system. It was very important to us to keep weight down in the boat. It has been more than enough power for us on our Prodigy. Thanks for watching.

No, not yet, but we certainly will consider it next spring. If you have one, let us know how it performs. Thanks for the question.

Juan Ceasar no, the base unit comes with an electric foot control from what we can tell. Thanks for watching.

bryan rogers it is very efficient from the times we used it last season. We have not tested performance for long periods of time in strong winds but hopefully, we can put it through those conditions this year. The 12 volt system was a requirement for us and so far so good. Good luck and thanks for the comment.

Thanks brother I'm hoping to put one on similar boat

When you power up, it should sync automatically. Make sure to power on your remote. Thanks for watching, hope this helps.

Thank you for the testimony. We are all about hearing the “good, bad and the ugly.”

Actually, we were on the phone with Minn Kota and still couldn’t get it to power up. After hours of tracing wires on a new boat with a new motor, we were just glad to hear it make connection.

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 yeah the fact it was backwards should have got replaced by them.

54”... it is plenty long even for a high deck. Its been a great product the 2 seasons we’ve used it. Hope this helps.

I live in south Florida and do a lot of fishing in thick vegetation the 12v 55lb thrust min Kota I have now struggles in that have. Have you put your through any thick pads hydrilla mats anything like that??

We have not used ours in heavy vegetation. We mostly use ours in lakes and old strip pits. That is helpful info for those needing to use in the thick cover. Thanks again for the testimony.

jig n' rig our 18’ Prodigy is .125 ga hull, pretty heavy boat. What I can tell you is that we have more than enough power for our big lakes and rivers. Hope this helps.

It has worked great for us-stays within a few feet. We have a friend with a MotorGuide that actually holds tighter if that is important for your needs. Thanks for watching, hope this helps...

Lol... it really is fun to play with. Thanks for the comment. Merry Christmas....

We have only ran it for 5-6 hours and it was still holding strong. Hope this helps...

@@wkyblue-collaroutdoors2152 Curious, what battery you are using. I have this same motor in my cart ready to buy, but I am debating on batteries. Thanks for the review

@@aaronmagnuson2869 honestly, our batteries come from Walmart-deep cycle marine. Not exactly Optima, but have been very good for our purposes. Good luck and thanks for the comment.

Yo 123456 it was close to $1300 when we bought ours...
