What To Love
Floating Remote - Use the included remote to control throttle and steering with the wireless remote control. Want to control throttle and steering without setting the rod down? Check out the power steer pedals.
Unprecedented Manoeuverability - Turn the boat quickly with full forward and reverse thrust in any direction. Weave through tight timber, turn in a tight circle, sneak along shorelines, and creep through weed beds while fishing. Use the included wireless handheld remote for point-and-go gesture steering.
Chartplotter Inegration - Wireless integration with Garmin chartplotters allows users to create routes and tracks for the trolling motor to follow while fishing. Adjust throttle and steering on the chartplotter control bar, adjust motor settings and more.
Stay Put - The anchor lock technology with multi-band GPS provides our most precise boat positioning technology to help keep the boat in one place, even in windy conditions or strong current.
Safety First - When wearing the included wireless man overboard tag, the motor cuts off if it detects the wearer falling overboard.
Power That Lasts - An efficient brushless motor design has longer run times than brushed motors and allows users to focus on fishing - and not running out of battery.
Total Control
FLOATING REMOTE - Use the included remote to help navigate with our simple point-and-go technology.
Stow and Deploy - Quickly stow or deploy the prop with one hand when there is a need to glide over shallow areas with the included stow rope and cleat kit.
Smartwatch Inegration - Connect a compatible Garmin smartwatch to control steering, anchor lock and more from the wrist.
Built For Kayaks
Two Prop Options - Use the high-efficiency prop to maximise battery life, or the weedless prop to cut through aquatic vegetation.
Industry Standard - The 4-hole mounting pattern makes installation easy on many different types of kayaks. The wireless foot pedals and rail system are also designed to accommodate a wide variety of installation methods.
Load Up and Go - Get on and off the water fast with simple motor and pedal installation and removal.
Whisper Quiet - Don’t spook the fish - the motor is extremely quiet above and below the water.
Rugged Design - The sturdy alloy shaft and components are built to endure harsh saltwater and freshwater environments with advanced corrosion protection.
