Minn Kota Ultrex 112/MSI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth - 36v-112LB - 45"
Minn Kota Ultrex 112/MSI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth - 36v-112LB - 45" — Product description
Imagine gliding across the water with effortless control, holding your position on a hot bite without lifting a finger, and scanning for fish with cutting-edge sonar—all from one powerhouse trolling motor. The Minn Kota Ultrex 112 with MSI/IP setup redefines what serious anglers expect from their gear. This 36-volt beast delivers 112 pounds of thrust through a 45-inch shaft, perfect for larger freshwater boats where precision meets power. It's not just about moving your boat; it's about transforming your fishing trips into efficient, frustration-free adventures.
Effortless Steering That Feels Like an Extension of Your Foot
At the heart of this Ultrex model is its groundbreaking power steering foot pedal. Unlike traditional cable-steer motors that fight you all day, this one responds instantly with smooth, intuitive control. Take your foot off the pedal, and thanks to Steering Lock, the motor head stays exactly where you pointed it—no drifting back or annoying readjustments. Anglers who've spent hours battling stiff pedals rave about how this feature cuts fatigue, letting you focus on the fish instead of the fight.
GPS-Powered Precision: Spot-Lock and Beyond
Pair it with the i-Pilot Link system, complete with Bluetooth connectivity, and you unlock a world of automated boating. Spot-Lock with Jog acts like an electronic anchor, using GPS to hold your boat steady against wind and current—within inches. Need to nudge over five feet? Just jog it via the remote or app. AutoPilot takes the wheel (or prop), maintaining your heading automatically. Integrate seamlessly with Humminbird fish finders for contour-following paths, recorded routes, and one-touch navigation to waypoints. It's like having a first mate who never complains.
Crystal-Clear Fish-Finding with Built-In MEGA Imaging
What sets this apart in the MSI configuration is the integrated MEGA Side and Down Imaging sonar. The transducer is tucked right into the motor housing, keeping your deck clean and wiring hidden. You'll see fish and structure in stunning detail—side scans up to 125 feet each side and down views that reveal bottom contours like never before. No more cluttered setups or exposed cables; everything's protected and ready to perform, giving you an edge on structure-heavy waters like lakes or rivers.
Built Tough for Real-World Fishing
Minn Kota's engineering shines in the details. The patented Lift-Assist mechanism uses a gas-charged spring to make stowing and deploying feel half the weight—crucial after a long day. An indestructible composite shaft flexes under pressure but bounces back, backed by a lifetime guarantee. Digital Maximizer tech squeezes up to five times more runtime from your batteries by delivering power only when needed, while the integrated battery meter on the i-Pilot remote keeps you informed. Variable speeds forward and reverse mean exact control at any pace.
Seamless Control at Your Fingertips
Manage it all from the corded heel-toe foot pedal, the color touchscreen remote, your phone's mobile app (iOS or Android), or even your Humminbird unit. Bluetooth ensures quick updates and reliable pairing. From speed tweaks to Spot-Lock activation, it's responsive and user-friendly, whether you're a tech-savvy tournament pro or a weekend warrior.
Kit Essentials for Quick Setup
Everything you need arrives ready to mount on your bow: the motor itself, i-Pilot Link remote, charging cable, USB adapter, lanyard, heading sensor, 30-foot Ethernet cable for Humminbird linking, stabilizer, hold-down strap, MKP-33 or MKP-38 prop, and all mounting hardware. Bow-mount design fits most freshwater vessels, from bass boats to pontoons.
