Minn Kota Fortrex 80/US2 Bow-Mount Trolling Motor – 24v-80lb-45″

Fortrex: Freshwater Bow Mount, We left the solid, extruded aluminum arm on the new Fortrex exposed, so everyone on the water can see what they’re up against: the most ruthless mount we’ve ever unleashed. With fewer moving parts, tighter tolerances and less give, Fortrex is the beefiest, meanest, quietest motor ever. Consider yourself warned. Mono-Arm Design: Sometimes, the simplest solution is best. In this case, it’s a revolution. Fortrex’s innovative Mono-Arm Design features an extruded, anodized aluminum, structural beam that operates with no metal-to-metal contact and 75% less torsion. A single hinge point and rear pivot bearing with 20% more surface area deliver less wear, longer life, and quieter operation than traditional motor mounts. Counter-Tension Stabilizer (CTS): CTS uses an integrated spring that applies force whether the motor’s stowed or deployed. On the water, that translates to a motor with no play, no give, reduced steering torque and silent operation. =Lift-Assist: Fortrex’s Lift-Assist design cuts the weight of stow and deploy in half, making it as easy as lifting your SUV tailgate. It features a stainless steel, nitrogen-charged gas spring to get you in and out of the water with ease. Removable Bowguard 360°: Lifting the motor and bowguard off of the mount is now even easier on Fortrex – just remove a single cap screw. The Removable Bowguard 360° also features a dual bearing system that eliminates noise and allows for improved breakaways from any angle. Illuminated Directional Indicator – Fortrex: The easy-to-read, illuminated directional indicator leaves no doubt about where you’re headed, Foot Pedal: Get wired to the water with our ultra-responsive foot pedal. Its new design is easier to operate, with more room for your foot and more exact speed control.
