Minn Kota PowerDrive™ 55 Trolling Motor w/Micro Remote - 12V - 55LB - 54" *Remanufactured — Product description
Imagine gliding silently across the water, zeroed in on that perfect fishing spot without the hassle of constant manual adjustments. The Minn Kota PowerDrive 55 trolling motor, equipped with a micro remote, brings that vision to life for freshwater anglers. This 12V powerhouse delivers 55 pounds of thrust through a 54-inch shaft, offering reliable control and precision steering that stands up to long days on the lake. As a remanufactured unit, it undergoes rigorous testing to meet original performance standards, giving you premium quality at an accessible level.
What sets this bow-mount electric-steer motor apart is its blend of cutting-edge tech and rugged durability. From effortless deployment to GPS-guided positioning, it's designed to enhance your fishing experience, letting you focus on the catch rather than the controls.
Standout Features That Elevate Your Fishing Game
Effortless Deploy-Assist Lever
Stowing and deploying your trolling motor has never been simpler. A quick press on the lever lets gravity do the work for smooth water entry, while secure stowing protects it during trailering or storage. This feature saves time and reduces wear, especially on smaller boats where space is tight.
GPS-Powered Precision with Spot-Lock
Harness the Advanced GPS Trolling System to anchor your boat virtually in place with Spot-Lock, holding position within inches even in wind or current. Adjust speed and steering seamlessly from the included micro remote—no foot pedal needed. AutoPilot keeps you on course toward waypoints or structure, making it ideal for targeting suspended fish or drifting patterns.
Smart Battery Management
The push-to-test battery meter provides real-time charge status at a glance, helping you avoid getting stranded mid-day. Paired with Digital Maximizer technology, it optimizes power output for up to five times longer runtime on a single charge. Dial in exact speeds without wasting energy, perfect for all-day tournaments or casual outings.
Robust Performance Elements
- Power Prop (MKP-37): Cuts through weeds and heavy loads with superior thrust, thriving in open water or vegetation.
- Indestructible Composite Shaft: Flexes under impact but won't break—Minn Kota backs it with a lifetime guarantee.
- Cool, Quiet Operation: Advanced cooling extends motor life while minimizing noise to avoid spooking fish.
Why Choose This Trolling Motor for Your Boat?
Anglers swear by the PowerDrive series for its bolt-on mount that's sleek yet battle-tested against docks, logs, and rough handling. The wireless micro remote offers intuitive control from anywhere on deck—steer, set cruise speeds, or activate Spot-Lock with fingertip ease. It's One-Boat Network compatible, integrating smoothly with fish finders for enhanced navigation.
Ideal for bass boats, jon boats, or pontoons up to 18 feet, this 55 lb thrust model shines in freshwater pursuits like walleye trolling or crappie jigging. Remanufactured means it's been meticulously refurbished, inspected, and certified, often performing like new while being kinder to your wallet.
Pro Tips for Maximum Performance
- Mount it forward on the bow for optimal leverage and visibility.
- Pair with a deep-cycle marine battery to leverage Digital Maximizer fully.
- Rinse with freshwater after brackish trips to protect the composite shaft.

Routine checks on props and connections keep it humming quietly. With a one-year warranty, you fish with confidence knowing support is there.
