2023 Minn Kota Buying Guide

don’t care how good the view is – going home empty-handed is never an option. That’s why every Minn Kota® is made to help you get more of what you came for. Fewer hang-ups, more hook-ups. Less to worry about, more to brag about. There’s a reason anglers trust our name over any other on the water: when you fish with us, you fish for more.

TROLLING MOTOR BUYING GUIDE

You learn a lot when you build 10 million motors. Like how to build one that lasts. One that makes your boat easier to control. One that takes the hassles and distractions out of an angler’s hands so they can focus on what they’re throwing out, what they’re reeling in and what they came out here to do. This guide is designed to help you find the right one. No matter the angler, no matter the situation, we’ve got a motor that’s built tough and proven to perform.

1FRESHWATER VS. SALTWATER

Where you fish determines a lot. Every motor we build is tough as nails, but for saltwater anglers we layer on more corrosion protection. Our freshwater motors are all black, while our saltwater motors are white and feature the Riptide® name.

TROLLING MOTORS WITH A TRACK RECORD

For 85 years. Over 10 million motors. We’ve built trolling motors the right way, from the inside out. It all starts with a powerful core of rock-solid innovations.

Unflinching Toughness

Our ultra-high-yield composite shaft is virtually indestructible, flexes on impact, and won’t break, rust, kink or corrode. It’s proven on the water. And guaranteed for life.

Silent Operation

We’ve spent decades dialing in absolute stealth operation on every motor. The entire lower unit is designed to dissipate heat while a unique bearing system cuts friction to virtually silence all moving parts. Every day.

Reliable Power

Our props make short work of weed fields and anything else that gets in your way – without battery-draining chopping and hacking. That’s unrelenting power that you can count on.

THE RIPTIDE® DIFFERENCE

From the inside out, Riptide motors are designed to stop saltwater corrosion dead in its tracks.

Coated Lower Units

Riptide lower unit housings are grit-blasted, then coated in aluminum to prevent oxidization and rust. Then, a final layer of powder coat paint provides the ultimate protection.

TGIC Polyester powder coat paint

99% pure aluminum coating Grit-blasted steel surface

Fully Encapsulated Electronics

Riptide control boards and circuitry are protected by a layer of marine-grade urethane. And all electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing to keep saltwater out, no matter what.

2MOUNTING LOCATIONS

BOW

Bow-mount trolling motors are packed with everything from stump-busting toughness to GPS-powered precision boat control. They attach to the front of the boat with a mount, and pull the boat through the water for better maneuverability and control.

TRANSOM

Our transom-mount trolling motors are trusted, reliable workhorses. They mount to the back of the boat with a clamp-on bracket and are controlled with a hand tiller. Ideal for smaller boats, dinghies and canoes, they’re great for general positioning and basic trolling.

MOTOR SIZE

To choose a trolling motor, determine how much power you need (thrust level and voltage) and what size shaft you need.

Thrust

How much power do you need? Trolling motor power is measured in pounds of thrust, and boat weight is key when determining how much thrust you need.

Voltage

Our trolling motors require one to three batteries on your boat based on their power level. You’ll need one battery for every 12 volts in your trolling system.

USE THIS CHART TO HELP DETERMINE HOW MUCH POWER YOU NEED.

BOAT WEIGHT (LB)

MAX BOAT LENGTH (FT)

RECOMMENDED MINIMUM THRUST LEVEL (LB OF THRUST) BATTERIES NEEDED

1,500 or less 14' 30 1 battery (12v)

2,000 17'-18' 40-45 1 battery (12v) 2,500 20'-21' 50-55 1 battery (12v)

3,000-3,500 23' 70 2 batteries (24v) 4,000 25' 80 2 batteries (24v) 4,500 or more 25' + 101-112 3 batteries (36v)

SHAFT LENGTH

Choosing the proper shaft length is important; if it’s too short, the prop won’t be sufficiently submerged. We recommend submerging the center of the motor section at least 12 inches.*

NOTE: For rougher water conditions, a longer shaft may be needed.

* Add 5" to waterline measurement for fishing in rough water. Optimal operating mode is with engine trimmed all the way down. Add 9" for bow-mount Hand Control motors. We recommend that the propeller tip is submerged at least 12" below the water line to avoid churning or agitation of water surface.

MOTOR CONTROL

Different motors have different control styles, each with their own unique advantages.

ELECTRIC-STEER BOW-MOUNT MOTORS

Innovative and intuitive, these models offer more control options and technology like Spot-Lock. With available i-Pilot ® and i-Pilot Link ™ systems, you can spend less time messing with your boat and more time fishing.

Electric-Steer Foot Pedal

Electric-steer motors give you the option to use a wireless remote control or the more traditional foot pedal. The Ulterra® foot pedal also lets you stow and deploy the motor automatically.

CABLE-STEER BOW-MOUNT MOTORS

Rugged and responsive, these models rely on a cable as the direct link between the foot pedal and the motor. Popular with bass fishermen, they also excel in shallow water by providing extra protection from things like weeds and stumps.

Cable-Steer Foot Pedal

Foot pedals for cable-steer motors are even more responsive, and are made with high-impact composite materials.

HAND CONTROL MOTORS

These models feature a tiller for direct, hands-on control of trusted Minn Kota power, delivering precise maneuverability. Hand control is available on all transom mounts, and as an option on most cable-steer models.

CAN’T CHOOSE ELECTRIC VS. CABLE? THEN CHOOSE ULTREX.

Our Ultrex™ bow-mount trolling motor combines responsive control with advanced GPS features –meaning you get Power Steering and features like Spot-Lock® all in one package. There’s a reason it’s the most popular and dominant bow-mount on the water.

CHOOSING YOUR MOTOR

Once you know the basics you’re looking for – mounting location, size and control style – the decision comes down to which technologies matter to you. The next few pages walk you through our technologies and the motors featuring them, so you can find the right one for you.

Want more of your time on the water? We know the feeling. It’s why we developed the One-Boat Network®. And now, there’s no limit to where we can take you. Get on fish. Stay on fish. And put fish in the boat.

Minn Kota and Humminbird® are one team, and the One-Boat Network is born from our commitment to making the most advanced fishing gear even better, by making it work together. That means One-Boat Network-capable products are easy to connect and simple to use, unlocking more features, capabilities and potential for anglers everywhere. Because when you fish with us, you fish for more.

SCAN TO LEARN MORE

When you stop messing with your boat, you start catching more fish. That’s why both i-Pilot and i-Pilot Link use GPS to control your boat for you –keeping you on a spot, retracing a path and more. You just push a button, and the motor takes care of the rest.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN i-PILOT AND i-PILOT LINK?

i-Pilot Link connects your trolling motor to your Humminbird fish finder, unlocking even more boat control features than i-Pilot and allowing you to control your motor from your Humminbird.

IN ADDITION TO THE REMOTE, i-PILOT® AND i-PILOT LINK™ CAN BE ACTIVATED FROM ANYWHERE IN THE BOAT.

Micro Remote

Add this remote to your system for quick command of speed, steering, Spot-Lock and Advanced AutoPilot™

Mobile Apps

Available for Apple ® or Android ™ devices, our i-Pilot and i-Pilot Link apps let you control speed, steering, Spot-Lock and Advanced AutoPilot. It also lets you easily update your i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link software.

Humminbird® Virtual i-Pilot Link Remote

i-Pilot Link’s Humminbird integration gives you a virtual remote on your Humminbird screen that lets you control speed, steering, Spot-Lock and Advanced AutoPilot – directly from your fish finder.

With a large LCD screen and intuitive controls, the i-Pilot remote is easy to use on day one and lets you see everything your motor is doing in real time.

NOTE: i-Pilot does not connect to a Humminbird fish finder. i-Pilot Link does.

WHAT CAN I DO WITH GPS IN MY MOTOR?

GLAD YOU ASKED.

With i-Pilot or i-Pilot Link on your boat, you become an unstoppable force. Get to fish. Stay on fish. Catch fish. All automatically, all with GPS accuracy. It’s less a question of what can i-Pilot and i-Pilot Link do, and more a question of what can’t they do?

Advanced AutoPilot™

Point the motor where you want to go and hit the button. Your motor will automatically keep you on that heading.

Spot-Lock ®

Anchor

Indicates an i-Pilot Link exclusive feature.

* This feature requires Humminbird LakeMaster ® Charts or AutoChart ® Live.

iTracks

Circle Mode

Cast to a spot while orbiting in a circle around it.

Follow*

Choose a contour – depth, bottom hardness or vegetation – on your Humminbird and your motor will automatically drive you along it.

Backtrack

Turn your Humminbird current track into an iTrack. i-Pilot Link will automatically retrace it up to 2 miles. You can dial-in your BackTrack travel distance in 0.1 mile increments.

Go To i-Pilot and i-Pilot Link can drive your boat for you. From your remote, mobile app or Humminbird unit (on i-Pilot Link), select any Spot-Lock, Route, waypoint, iTrack or contour, and your motor will drive your boat to it automatically.

Speed and Steering

Both GPS systems give you command of speed, steering and Cruise Control that you can adjust in 0.1 mile-per-hour increments.

Part of the One-Boat Network ®

i-Pilot Link connects your trolling motor to your Humminbird fish finder to unlock exclusive features like Follow and Circle Mode, and gives you the ability to control your motor directly from your Humminbird.

NOTE: Many i-Pilot Link functions still work without a connected Humminbird fish finder.

THIS

The most popular button on your fishing remote. The one with the anchor on it. That’s Spot-Lock, the game-changing GPS anchor. Just push it, and Spot-Lock uses GPS to lock your boat onto your fishing spot more accurately than anything else on the water.

SHALLOW WATER ANCHORS

WHEN YOU FIND FISH, WE’RE DOWN

From the relentless Raptor to the trusted power of Talon, when you’re ready to lock down fish in shallow water, we have your weapon.

How To Dominate In Shallow Water

A shallow water anchor revolutionizes the way you stay on fish. Both Raptor and Talon give fish nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. Zero in on your target by keeping your boat in the exact position and orientation you want, with a whisper-quiet anchor and no prop to disturb sediment or spook fish.

Anchor in Anything

Raptor and Talon can adjust their anchoring force based on what kind of bottom you’re anchoring into, so you get the right amount of power you need for a secure hold in rocks, silt, mud or sand. Raptor can even sense the bottom automatically, dialing in the right amount of force for the job.

Control From Anywhere

Raise and lower your anchor from the unit, a dedicated remote control, an i-Pilot remote, or a mobile app. And because both Raptor and Talon are on the One-Boat Network, you can even control them from your Humminbird fish finder.

RAPTOR IS RELENTLESS

It never stops attacking. Never stops working to keep you locked in. It never stops stopping. This is Raptor. Only from Minn Kota.

KNOW WHEN TO FIGHT BACK

You don’t know what it’s like down there. But Raptor does. It’s built to sense anything that threatens to knock you off your spot, then counterpunch to keep you locked in no matter what.

Active Anchoring

Only Raptor can automatically anchor you back in when wind and waves pick up. Its patented Active Anchoring feature senses if you start to lose your hold, then anchors you back in. You stay fishing, and Raptor stays ready for the next wave.

A uto-Bottom Mode*

Whether you’re anchoring into rocks, mud, silt, sand or anything else – Raptor can sense what it is and automatically apply the right hold. So you get enough power to anchor in without getting stuck in the mud.

User-Selectable Anchoring Modes

Auto-Bottom Mode is just one of four anchoring modes that help you get the right hold in any condition. You can also choose from:

STANDARD MODE

ROUGH WATER MODE

for most situations for rough wind and heavy chop

Unrivaled Retraction Force

SOFT BOTTOM MODE

for anchoring into soft mud and silt

When you’re ready to move spots, so is Raptor. We packed it with unparalleled retraction force to quickly get you out of the bottom and onto your next spot.

POWER TO RELY ON

Lock in at the Push of a Button

Auto Up/Down gives you one-touch stow and deploy that’s as easy as using a car’s automatic windows.

TALON DOWN. GAME ON.

When you find the right fishing spot, time is critical. You can’t wait to anchor, can’t wait to cast, and can’t be bothered to move until you get what you came for. That’s why we designed every inch of Talon to hold you in place effortlessly and relentlessly – every time out.

Control Talon from your Humminbird fish finder or i-Pilot Link remote with the One-Boat Network. See more on page 10.

THE STRONGEST HOLD ON THE WATER

Twice the Force

Talon deploys with twice the anchoring force of the competition, so you can hold in any spot.

Anchor in Anything

Talon’s exclusive User-Selectable Anchoring Modes give you the perfect hold in any condition.

Standard Mode

For most anchoring situations.

Rough Water Mode

For heavy wind and chop.

Soft Bottom Mode

For muddy or silted bottoms.

Put Heavy Chop in its Place

Talon’s built-in floating suspension keeps your boat locked to the bottom even in rough water, enabling your boat to move up or down without affecting the anchor.

BATTERY CHARGERS

We know what it takes to power the best trolling motors and shallow water anchors on the water. That’s why we built the toughest, smartest chargers on the water that make sure your batteries are ready for the next run – and that they stay ready for years to come.

FOR THE LONG HAUL

ON-BOARD MARINE BATTERY CHARGERS

Plug it in. Turn in for the night. Then get up the next day and do it all over again. But what happens in the hours when your battery is hooked up to a charger? If that charger has our name on it, a lot. We build them tough and reliable, of course. But we’ve also packed them with a variety of technologies that keep your batteries protected and running like new for years.

Here’s your wake-up call: it’s time for a charger that keeps you on the water longer.

THE POWER OF DIGITAL

When you over- or under-charge your battery, you shorten its overall life. Minn Kota chargers are digitally designed to deliver just the right amount of power every time you plug in. No more. No less. Just a longer-lasting, better-performing battery.

Automatic Temperature Compensation

Minn Kota chargers adjust for fluctuations in temperature to prevent damaging your battery.
