Motorguide X5 80 FW Trolling Motor

If you’re a tournament fisherman, a dedicated bass man, or just a die-hard cable steer guy hunting for a new trolling motor, look no further. The MotorGuide X5 is an impressive workhorse. This is a solid choice for anglers who seek precision steering control for navigating close to shore and moving around tricky obstacles. This motor also sets a new standard for quiet operation due to its use of composite material in the bushings and stow and deploy mechanisms. The innovative Variable Ratio Steering (VRS) will allow you to maneuver into the perfect casting position while quiet operation insures the fish won’t spook.

Digital Power Management will extend your run time and ensure your battery never runs out before you do, while beefy construction will give you peace of mind that your motor will stand the test of time and the rigors of fishing. Also features a 2-blade weedless prop and an LED directional indicator. Variable speed motors available in 55, 70, 80 and 105lb thrust.
