Minn Kota Edge 45 - Latch & Door - Foot Control - 12V-45lb-45" *Remanufactured — Product description
Conquer Tough Waters with Unmatched Durability
Imagine navigating through dense weed beds or battling strong currents without your trolling motor skipping a beat. The Minn Kota Edge 45 steps up to those demands with its rugged build, perfect for serious anglers chasing big catches in challenging environments. This foot-controlled model blends precision steering with relentless power, letting you focus on the fish instead of fighting the motor.
Remanufactured to meet original standards, it undergoes rigorous testing for reliability, offering like-new performance at a fraction of the cost. Whether you're on a bass boat or a smaller jon boat, its 45-inch shaft provides the reach needed for optimal propeller depth in varied water conditions.
Effortless Mounting and Removal
The standout Latch & Door system transforms how you handle your motor. Simply unlatch the soft-grip knob, swing the door open, and lift it off the mount for secure storage or transport. No tools required, and it stows rock-solid during rough rides, protecting your gear from damage.
Paired with the extruded anodized aluminum upper arm, this setup withstands years of pounding waves and accidental impacts, ensuring your setup stays battle-ready season after season.
Intuitive Foot Pedal for Pinpoint Control
Foot control shines when your hands are busy with rods or the wheel. The redesigned pedal offers ample space for comfortable operation, delivering exact speed adjustments across five distinct settings. A high-visibility directional indicator on the motor head keeps your heading clear, even in low light or choppy water.
This cable-steer design responds instantly, making tight maneuvers around structure effortless. Anglers report maintaining position over hotspots for hours, maximizing hookups without constant readjustments.
Cool, Quiet Thrust That Lasts
At 45 pounds of thrust on 12 volts, it punches through heavy cover while sipping battery life efficiently. Extra-large windings and commutators keep things cool under load, stretching runtime on a single charge. The unique bearing system minimizes noise, approaching spots stealthily to avoid spooking wary fish.
The Power Prop slices through vegetation like a hot knife, maintaining momentum where weaker props stall. Combine that with an indestructible composite shaft—stronger than steel, flexes on impact, and backed by a lifetime guarantee—and you've got a motor built to outlast your boat.
Pro Tips for Peak Performance
To get the most from your Edge 45, pair it with a deep-cycle marine battery rated for at least 100 amp-hours. Monitor voltage to stay above 11V for consistent thrust. In saltwater, rinse the shaft and prop after use to preserve the composite materials.
For weed-heavy lakes, tilt the motor up slightly during approaches to clear debris. Many users tilt-stow it between drifts, leveraging the mount's stability to save time repositioning.
