I knew going in that this was a transom mount style and I was going to "modify" it to fit my older bow mount trolling motor. Can't believe the diff. The old one from 1986 OE on a 15 fiberglass trihull bassboat must have been like 20lbs thrust-LOL this thing on 2 setting moves me around as good as old one on full speed. And on 5 I'm goin as fast as high idle with the big motor (88 Evinrude). Although the shaft isn't as thick as the old one, so it slides up/dn inside the clamp on the bow mount assy, and had to remove the head and twist the handle around to face me, it was still way worth it. Great product, good price and fast shipping. Oh and was $20 cheaper than Gander and other competitors. Thanks again Wally-World!

I bought this trolling motor for a 12 foot jon boat. I ordered on-line on Saturday and with standard delivery, received my motor the following Tuesday. I am very pleased with the performance of this motor. Really impressed with the 5th speed.

Bought this to motorize my 18ft canoe. After building custom mount have used it twice so far. Really can get moving. Had loaded canoe with my family and felt like we were going maybe 8 to 10 mph. It's yielded 6 fish, my kids first trout experience.

It's a Minn Kota, to most that speaks for itself. It's a workhorse. The 40 lb. Is great. It's not too much not too little. Great for inflatables. The different shaft lengths should open doors to more applications. I like mine so far!

I have a 10 ft small boat.The only mistake I made was the size of the shaft. I could have gone with a 30 inch. As far as the motor goes I could not ask for more. It has the power.

The first motor I had was defective, it killed my new deep cycle battery and the propeller hardly moved. I took it back and exchanged my battery being it was still under warranty. The original would not push my boat. The second has a lot of power and Im sure this one will push my boat, I haven't tried it out on the river yet, just in a bucket of water

Used for first time on 3 day fishing trip. Motor has excellent performance and battery usage was very good. Speed setting at 5 pushed a 14ft V-hull with 40 hp motor, 2 people, and all fishing gear very fast. In 3 days of off and on use the battery still had 3/4 charge. I highly recommend this motor.

Have only used it once, so far so good. Seems to do what it is designed to do. It was shipped and received when it was scheduled. Ordering process easy to do :}

New motor, better battery, works great! Follow the manufacturers directions. Buy the recommended size battery and charge it within 12 to 24 hours of discharge. Batteries setting empty, greatly shortens the life of the battery.

I am very satisfied with my purchase. It was exactly what I wanted and needed. It has plenty of thrust. The motor doesn't seem to drain the battery very quick either. I searched Walmart online. They had this one and I purchased it. Very easy shopping also.
