  • 86LB thrust (2025 update long story short I love this motor!)
Pattern Name: Motor Style: 86lb Thrust
The media could not be loaded. UPDATED PICTURES AND REVIEW AFTER 100 fishing trips. 3/24/2025. I will leave my original review but add too it. I still like the motor. Very fast(3.5mph by itself). It absolutely still serves its purpose. Never any issues with 500+ hrs between my dad and I. Only issues are -battery indicator on top is worthless. THE FIX- Just make sure your battery’s are charged and do not risk it(recommend Noco onboard charger 10x3). -there is no creeping going up the bank, even first gear is 2+ mph and I’m being picky but a little loud. THE FIX- I have enjoyed using this motor to help get us to the other side of lake first thing in morning then use front motor to creep up banks. I don’t mean to exaggerate the noise, not bad but noticeable. -Vibration. It’s not terrible but the handle definitely wobbles/vibrates at top speed but it is worth it for extra speed vs 55/62lb options. I can only get 2.5mph out of the front 55lb thrust minkota edge($100 on marketplace).THE FIX- I have not attempted to play with mitigating the vibration. Also not a big deal just being transparent with issues that are frustrating (even if only make you mad a little lol) Next upgrade for me is new lithium batteries to drop some weight. Still rocking 3 27 size 100ah+ ($100 each) from Walmart. 2 for rear motor. 1 for front motor and electronics. It’s been GREAT! This setup got my and pops fishing on my small budget. Grateful for that. Lots of fish caught and even more memories made. You all can imagine your typical 35yr old son and 70year old dad fishing. LOL Hope this helps. Buy the motor. I would again. I’ll be looking at the nt300 down the road for a jon boat build! 6/1/2024 Disclaimer!!!!!! I have only used the Newport motor once so I can’t give feedback on long term yet but I’ll update back over time if things change. I’m no expert at all but I have had maybe 10 trolling motors over the years and can compare speed-vibration-battery life-ergonomics-etc from them to it. Overall yes I am happy with it and will NOT be returning it. It’s very nice with only one major flaw. First gear is way too aggressive. This new newport 86lb is faster in first gear than my 40lb at full power. Creeping ultra quietly down the bank is not easy anymore. I WANT TO GIVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FIRST. Only one issue so far, first gear is super aggressive. It’s not bad enough for me to return, just something to note. First gear, the slowest option is 2.5mph. For example my 40lb first gear is maybe little over half of a mph. So an immediate 2.5mph is very jerky, so if you are moving on small ponds just get the 62lb that runs 12v. If you are fishing bigger reservoirs or state parks, etc get this 86lb. I covered so much more water today now that I’m moving double the speed. I wish it was possible to have a slower first gear to creep from spot to spot. It’s much more aggressive than I would like first gear to be. IF the guy upfront is standing you better let him know before you turn the motor on. It’s funny with my buddy in his 30s, but my dad in his 70s is going to have a balance problem if he is standing LOL. Creeping ultra quietly down the bank is not possible. Reverse is perfect! Very powerful too. With this new 86lb I’m now able to get over 4mph while using both motors even with weight of 3 big batteries and 2 180-200lb guys and our rods, the front motor and battery/etc. The motor seems very nice quality, reminds me of minn kota. I would rank this quality higher feel than my motorguides (r3 ) but lower than min kotas. The lever clicks are very solid, like I like my adjustments on an optic. I want to hear and feel the change. I ran it all day today and the battery light only went down 3 bar! Nothing got hot either. INCLUDES THE CABLE YOU NEED TO RIN 24v! I took a picture of wiring and batteries to help others get setup. Super simple To run the 24v needed. I picked up 2 deep cycle marine batteries (pictured) at Walmart for $100 each. They are both 100+ah batteries. This 86lb came with the cable to run from one batteries positive, to the other batteries negative. Then you hook the motor up wires to the open positive and negative posts. Battery voltage indicator is such a nice feature. I will reply back to tell you how accurate it is. UPDATE NOT ACCURATE! Vibration seemed normal. Nothing to crazy. I was able to turn on full speed and it stayed straight with my hand even off it. Big bonus for that when you need to cover a lot of water it’s nice to take your hand off for a second. This Newport 86lb motor seems to only weigh slightly more than a normal 55lb troller. Also a win. Easy to take on and off boat if you need to. ... show more

  • Fun toy for slow cruises
Pattern Name: Motor Style: 55lb Thrust
I bought the 55 pound thrust model to use on my Intex Excursion 4 inflatable boat. Short story is it works really great. Longer story is that I'm using a 100ah lifepo4 battery to power it. The battery is inside a 12 volt battery box. If using a lifepo4 battery, DO NOT trust the accuracy of the battery meter on the motor handle. It's only reading voltage, and attempting to determine the battery capacity of a lifepo4 battery from voltage alone is vague at best. I've drained the battery down to 40% and all of the green lights were still lit up, happy as could be. I installed a Renogy 500amp shunt into the battery box to get an exact real time view of the motor's power draw and time remaining. Your draws may fluctuate a little from mine, but should be well within the same ballpark. You can use these values to calculate the expected run time from your battery: At speed 1, the motor drew 10 amps or 132 watts. At speed 2, the motor drew 13.3 amps or 173 watts. At speed 3, the motor drew 20 amps or 259 watts. At speed 4, the motor drew 24.4 amps or 315 watts. At speed 5, the motor drew 52.3 amps or 664 watts. As you can see, the increase in power consumption is somewhat linear and modest through the first four speeds, but bumping it into the fifth speed doubles the power required while only giving what I would estimate to be around a 25% increase in speed. In short there's rarely any reason to use the fifth speed. Although it has been nice to have once or twice when encountering stronger than expected winds. I typically cruise around in speed 3 or 4. My 100ah battery can run for five hours on speed 3, or 4 hours on speed 4. Way more than enough time. This will allow me to putt around at about 3 miles per hour. At 23 pounds, it's light enough to easily carry to and from the car to the launch site. I can mount it on the bracket for my boat in about two minutes. I have a "real" boat as well, but sometimes it's fun to take the little inflatable one out and put this motor on the back of it. There's also the benefit that you can fit everything in your car and explore new places. I take it with me when we go camping. My kids get a kick out of it. Overall it's a lot of fun and I'd recommend it. If you're in the US, note that in almost all states, once you put a motor on anything regardless of size, it needs to be registered. ... show more
