  • Perfect trolling motor for my boat
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-45sw Digital
I wanted a variable speed trolling motor for my crappie fishing boat and found it!

  • Very Good Motor For Its Price
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-45fw
Very good motor for its price ($114.99 sold by Amazon as of this review). Everything worked as it should, and I've had no problems whatsoever the 5-6 times I've used it over the past 2 months. The ONLY thing to consider is that the stock propeller blades don't seem as sturdy compared to something like a Minn Kota stock. Very minor issue, and don't get me wrong, I was still able to go through thick weeds and vegetation. If anything, you could replace the blades with better ones. The total cost (with motor at $114.99) would still be considerably less than the average 45-pound thrust motor. ... show more

  • Make sure you buy a quality 50amp breaker. Awesome trolling motor unit!!!
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-45fw
Great size & value. Runs a long time off two batterys for a 12volt unit. Pushes my 1964 16' Alumacraft Yukon close to 3MPH. Perfect size.

  • Decent Motor
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-45fw
So far so Good... used it the other day on 12 foot Row Boat loaded out for fishing with 2 people... performed fine ...plenty of power.. not all that quite...Battery life seems decent when using Marine Battery 27DC Everstart. Ran most of the day on Motor setting 4 and 5 ... getting to and from fishing locations ..switched to my Spare Battery towards end of day , but still had juice in Everstart.The stock prop works great for chopping through an occasional patch of lily pads.Steering is smooth.Would recommend to someone looking for an upgrade from a 30 lb Thrust.UPDATE:5-27-2014, Motor started making noises on last trip out , sounded like lower end .When it would get hot (I presume), it would start surging almost to the point of stopping.Rest it and it would run ok...Almost stranded me. Had old Minnkota backup with me Thank God.Received RMA from Amazon going to swap with another... Hope this one is better.Also noticed Battery terminals were getting very Hot With Motorguide... did not do this with my old Minnkota.I will adjust my Ratings as needed after checking over new one... ... show more

  • great little motor
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-40fw
I bought this to push my dads coleman crawdad up the shenandoah river and it did a great job. It did fine on 4, kick it up to 5 and it just goes!! It's not too big to drain the battery to fast either, we can be on the river for 6-8 hours at various speeds and the battery wasn't dead. I can't wait to get it on a still lake. Great quality, fast shipping from Amazon. ... show more

  • 100 % satisfied.

Excellent product. I prefer it to several Minn Kotas that have failed miserably in short order.

  • NOT Digital
Size: 36-inch Style: R3-40fw
I ordered the 40# FW motor. Solid motor but this is not the digital model as indicated in the description. (This appears to be a carry over mistake from the add on the manufacturers website, actually) This is the basic MT series 5 speed model without the battery saving circuitry of the higher end HT series. That is what was sent to me (R3-40 MT) anyway. I returned it as I really wanted infinite speed control and the maximizer battery saver features. p.s. Hint : Once the tiller handle is installed, it will NOT fit back in the box for easy return . ... show more
