Yes, trolling motors rely on a battery to work. The battery powers the electric motor that propels the boat. It provides the necessary electrical energy to propel the boat silently and efficiently, making it an essential component for operating a trolling motor. At a Glance: 1️⃣ Operating conditions such as temperature, wind, and current can…
Yes, lithium batteries are worth the investment. The advantages include improved performance, reduced weight, increased longevity, shorter charging time, and maintenance-free operation. But before you go and head to Bass Pro, consider these quick points below and then read on to find out why your money will be well spent. At a glance:1️⃣ Lithium-ion batteries…
The main difference between an electric trolling motor and an electric outboard is the outboard is used for a primary means of propulsion, and the trolling motor is not. Granted, there are exceptions where it’s possible to use an electric trolling motor as your propulsion system, but generally speaking, they are supplementary to your outboard….
With technology continuing to be developed, the original concept of trolling motors has been expanded. For example, the latest generation GPS drive units can be routed on a specific course or hold the boat stationary without the need to drop anchor. Choosing the length of a trolling motor shaft is an important decision. If the…
The measurement of an electric outboard motor shaft must include the transom height, the propellor’s radius, and an additional margin of between 4 to 10 inches to allow for different hull shapes. 🔑 Key Takeaways 1️⃣ To ensure optimum performance, the electric outboard motor must be set up correctly, and one of the critical measurements…
It is the E-Motion 180E by Vision Marine Technologies. Vision Marine Technologies also held this title with its previous motor, the Evoy Pro. Ever wondered how fast an electric outboard motor could go compared to traditional internal combustion engines and if they could compete? Keep reading to find out! I’ll also go through the most…
