Minn Kota Ulterra 112/MDI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot & Bluetooth- 36V-112lb-72"
Minn Kota Ulterra 112/MDI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot & Bluetooth- 36V-112lb-72" — Product description
Revolutionize Your Fishing with Integrated MEGA Down Imaging
Imagine gliding silently across the water, your eyes locked on a crystal-clear view of fish hovering just below the surface, structure mapping out in stunning detail—all without a single dangling wire or exposed sensor. The Minn Kota Ulterra 112 with built-in MEGA Down Imaging delivers this game-changing clarity right from the motor's lower unit. Protected within the robust composite shaft, the transducer feeds high-frequency MEGA Imaging directly to your Humminbird fish finder, revealing fish, bottom contours, and cover in unprecedented resolution. Pair this with CHIRP sonar for noise-free target separation, and you're equipped to pinpoint prime spots faster than ever, turning good days into legendary ones.
Effortless Control: Auto Stow, Deploy, and Power Trim
Forget wrestling with heavy gear in rough conditions. This Ulterra model stows and deploys at the touch of a button via the i-Pilot remote, foot pedal, or compatible Humminbird display. Need to adjust depth mid-fight? Power Trim lets you raise or lower the motor instantly, adapting to waves, wind, or shifting depths without leaving your casting position. Anglers rave about how this frees up focus for the fish, not the fuss, especially during high-stakes tournaments or family outings where every second counts.
- Seamless Operation: One-tap commands keep your hands on the rod.
- Versatile Control: Remote, pedal, or fish finder—your choice.
- Proven Reliability: Built for freshwater bow-mount setups on larger boats.
i-Pilot GPS: Your On-Water Autopilot
The heart of this trolling motor is the i-Pilot GPS system, a fisherman's best friend for precision positioning. Spot-Lock anchors you GPS-accurately over honey holes, holding steady against current or wind—jog it five feet any direction if the bite shifts. AutoPilot maintains your heading automatically, battling elements so you don't have to. Record custom paths for repeat runs over productive reefs or drop-offs, and control it all from the large LCD remote or your smartphone app. Bluetooth connectivity means software updates and steering tweaks are always at your fingertips, ensuring you're running the latest tech.
Endurance and Efficiency for All-Day Action
Powered by 36 volts and 112 pounds of thrust, this 72-inch shaft beast conquers big water without breaking a sweat. Digital Maximizer tech squeezes up to five times more runtime from your batteries by delivering just the power you need at variable speeds. The integrated battery meter on the remote gives real-time charge status, so surprises are off the table. Add the indestructible composite shaft—lifetime guaranteed—and Weedless Wedge 2 prop that slices through vegetation, and you've got a motor engineered for relentless performance and zero downtime.
Real-world anglers know: in weedy bays or windy lakes, features like the heel-toe electric foot pedal shine, offering intuitive steering, trim, and Spot-Lock activation with an 18-foot cord for maximum reach.
Why Ulterra Stands Out for Serious Anglers
This isn't just a motor; it's a fishing partner that anticipates your needs. No external transducers mean a sleeker install and less vulnerability to dings from docks or trailer mishaps. Mobile app integration puts full command—speed, heading, Spot-Lock—in your pocket, perfect for solo trips or quick adjustments while drifting. Whether chasing walleye in shallow flats or bass around submerged timber, the Ulterra 112 elevates your strategy, letting advanced sonar and GPS do the heavy lifting so you reel in more keepers.
Pro Tips for Maximizing Your Ulterra Experience
Optimize Sonar Setup: Pair with a Humminbird unit supporting MEGA Imaging for the full wow-factor—tweak sensitivity for varying water clarity to spot subtle bottom hugs.
Battery Management: Use three deep-cycle Group 27 or 31 batteries in parallel for peak 36V performance; monitor via the app to plan long sessions.
Trailering Smart: Leverage AutoStow for quick pack-up, protecting the shaft and mount during transport.
These tweaks, drawn from tournament pros, ensure you're not just powered, but positioned for success every outing.

Now with Built In MEGA-DI:
You can’t mark fish if you can’t see fish. And the best view of what’s below comes from Humminbird’s MEGA Imaging™. So get a Humminbird’s eye view with a MEGA DI transducer built right into the lower unit of our most powerful, trusted motors.
No cluttered wires, no clamps and a transducer that’s protected from the elements. Just plug your fish finder into your motor to see what’s down there. Then go catch it.
No External Transducer - Messy wiring on an externally mounted transducer doesn’t just look bad: the transducer and wires are more susceptible to damage. With Built-In MEGA DI, the transducer is housed in the indestructible lower unit and all wiring runs through the shaft, for a clean, uncluttered look that’s protected from the elements.
Humminbird MEGA Imaging opened the eyes of anglers everywhere by taking fish finding into the megahertz frequency for the first time. Now your Minn Kota® motor can deliver crystal clear MEGA Down Imaging of what’s directly below the bow, just the way it was meant to be seen.
In addition to MEGA Down Imaging, the Built-In MEGA DI transducer will also provide CHIRP Digital Sonar, for precise, crystal-clear returns of fish, structure and the bottom at all water levels. Sweeping multiple frequencies across a broad spectrum, this powerful tool eliminates noise for precisely defined targets.
