Minn Kota Fortrex 112/MDI Trolling Motor - 36V-112lb-52" *Remanufactured
Minn Kota Fortrex 112/MDI Trolling Motor - 36V-112lb-52" *Remanufactured — Product description
Upgrade your fishing setup with the powerhouse performance of this Minn Kota Fortrex model, now enhanced with built-in MEGA Down Imaging technology. Designed for serious anglers who demand precision and reliability on the water, this 36-volt beast delivers 112 pounds of thrust through a 52-inch shaft, perfect for larger boats tackling rough conditions or heavy vegetation. As a remanufactured unit, it combines factory-fresh quality with unbeatable value, rigorously tested to meet original standards so you can focus on landing that trophy catch.
Seamless Sonar Integration for Crystal-Clear Views
Imagine spotting structure and fish directly beneath your bow without the hassle of external transducers or tangled cables. The integrated MEGA DI transducer sits protected inside the lower unit, channeling Humminbird's megahertz imaging straight to your compatible fish finder. This setup not only keeps your deck tidy but also shields sensitive components from splashes, rocks, and impacts—common hazards on busy fishing days.
Beyond Down Imaging, it sweeps CHIRP frequencies for noise-free sonar returns, revealing baitfish schools, submerged timber, and bottom contours with unmatched detail. Anglers report easier hooksets and fewer missed opportunities, turning average outings into limit-filling adventures.
Effortless Handling with Innovative Mount and Controls
The patented Lift-Assist mount makes stowing and deploying a breeze, using a nitrogen-charged spring to halve the effort compared to traditional designs. No more wrestling with heavy gear at dawn or dusk. Pair it with the Bowguard 360 bracket, which snaps back into place after collisions, ensuring your motor stays operational even after brushing docks or logs.
- Mono-arm construction: Extruded aluminum reduces vibration and noise for stealthy approaches to spooky fish.
- Counter-Tension Stabilizer: Eliminates wobble during long runs, providing rock-solid stability at any speed.
- Heel-toe foot pedal: Intuitive cable-steer control lets you fine-tune direction and speed without lifting your eyes from the water.
Visibility stays sharp with the illuminated directional indicator, a game-changer in low-light conditions like foggy mornings or overcast afternoons.
Built to Last: Durability Meets Efficiency
Crafted with an indestructible composite shaft—backed by a lifetime guarantee—this motor shrugs off bends and breaks that sideline lesser models. The Digital Maximizer technology optimizes power draw, stretching battery life up to five times longer than non-variable motors, so you fish longer without recharging mid-day.
The Weedless Wedge 2 prop powers through weeds and grass without clogging, maintaining thrust where others falter. Cool-running lower units mean quieter operation and extended component life, ideal for multi-day tournaments or family trips.
Pro tip: Pair with deep-cycle batteries matched to 36 volts for peak performance, and check the push-to-test meter before each launch to monitor charge levels effortlessly.
Why Choose Remanufactured for Your Next Upgrade?
Remanufactured doesn't mean second-best—it's a smart choice for eco-conscious anglers seeking premium features at a fraction of new-unit costs. Each motor undergoes meticulous inspection, part replacement, and performance testing, delivering like-new reliability. Save on your rig without skimping on the tech that separates weekend warriors from pros.
Real-World Performance Tips
On big-water bass lakes, leverage the 112-pound thrust to fight wind and current while holding position over hotspots. In shallow rivers, the 52-inch shaft keeps the prop submerged without grounding. Maintain peak efficiency by rinsing after saltwater exposure and storing vertically to prevent seal issues. Users love how it transforms boat control, making spot-on-the-bow presentations a reality.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the built-in MEGA DI transducer better than external ones?
It eliminates wiring clutter and protects the transducer inside the motor's housing, reducing damage risk from elements or impacts while delivering superior MEGA Down Imaging and CHIRP sonar directly below your boat.
How does the Lift-Assist mount work?
A stainless steel, gas-charged spring halves the effort needed to stow or deploy the motor, making it user-friendly for solo anglers or quick adjustments on the water.
Is the composite shaft really indestructible?
Minn Kota guarantees it for life against breakage, thanks to its advanced composite material that flexes under stress rather than snapping like metal shafts.
What boats is this trolling motor suited for?
With 112 pounds of thrust and a 52-inch shaft, it's ideal for larger bass boats, walleye rigs, or multi-species crafts from 18 to 24 feet handling moderate to heavy loads.
How do I maximize battery life with Digital Maximizer?
Use variable speeds instead of full throttle bursts; it intelligently manages power to extend runtime up to 5x on the same charge, monitored via the built-in battery meter.
Can the foot pedal handle rough water?
Yes, its high-impact composite build withstands dunks and abuse, offering precise heel-toe steering for confident control in choppy conditions.
What's the advantage of the Weedless Wedge 2 prop?
Swept-back blades slice through vegetation without stalling, conserving battery and maintaining speed in weedy bays or lily pads.

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 coming 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 findings 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.
