Minn Kota Maxxum 70 52 Speed Control Hand Control Product Description
Dominate Rough Waters with Unmatched Durability
Picture this: you're out on the lake, battling wind-whipped waves and hidden underwater hazards, yet your trolling motor stays rock-solid. The Minn Kota Maxxum 70 with its 52-inch shaft and hand control delivers that reliability. Designed for serious anglers who refuse to let tough conditions sideline their day, this 70-pound thrust powerhouse on 24 volts keeps you precisely positioned over structure without skipping a beat.
What sets it apart? It's not just built tough—it's engineered to perform silently and efficiently, letting you focus on landing that trophy fish. Whether you're stalking bass in stump-filled bays or drifting through weedy shallows, this motor's intuitive controls and rugged build make every outing smoother.
Maxxum Mount: Your Anchor in Chaos
The tournament-proven Maxxum mount laughs off brutal impacts from waves, logs, or docks. It plows forward through anything in its path during use, then locks down tight when stowed—no flexing, vibrating, or shifting to rattle your gear. Anglers swear by it for multi-day trips where reliability isn't optional.
Bowguard 360°: Impact Protection That Resets Itself
Running aground at any angle? The Bowguard 360° absorbs the hit, pivots away, and snaps back into place automatically. Its dual-bearing design runs whisper-quiet, and when trailering season hits, it pops off in seconds for safekeeping. This feature alone saves headaches (and repair bills) on boats navigating shallow or cluttered waters.
Precision Speed Control at Your Fingertips
With five forward and three reverse speeds via hand control, dialing in the perfect troll is effortless. No fumbling— just smooth, responsive steering via durable cable system. Pair that with the push-to-test battery meter, and you're always one glance away from knowing your juice status, preventing those mid-fight power fades.
Cut Through Vegetation Effortlessly
The Weedless Wedge 2 propeller's swept-back blades push thick weeds aside instead of fighting them, saving battery life and keeping you moving. Combined with the indestructible composite shaft—stronger than steel, guaranteed for life—this setup thrives in the sloppiest cover without bending or breaking.
Cool Operation for All-Day Endurance
Minn Kota's oversized windings and advanced commutators run cooler than competitors, stretching your battery further and extending motor life. The whisper-quiet bearings minimize vibration and noise, so spooked fish stay put while you stealthily approach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Minn Kota Maxxum 70 suitable for saltwater use?
This model is optimized for freshwater environments like lakes and rivers. For saltwater, consider Minn Kota's dedicated saltwater series with enhanced corrosion resistance.
How does the hand control compare to foot pedal models?
Hand control offers direct, intuitive steering ideal for smaller boats or precise maneuvering, while foot pedals free up your hands for casting—both deliver Minn Kota reliability.
Can I upgrade this motor with i-Pilot later?
This base model lacks i-Pilot compatibility out of the box. For GPS features, look at i-Pilot equipped versions during purchase for seamless spot-lock and autopilot functions.
What's the best battery setup for optimal performance?
Pair it with two 12-volt deep-cycle batteries in parallel for 24 volts. Group 27 or 31 batteries provide all-day power; always use marine-rated ones for safety and longevity.
How do I maintain the composite shaft and prop?
Rinse with fresh water after use, inspect for dings, and store vertically. The lifetime shaft guarantee covers manufacturing defects—avoid impacts beyond normal fishing abuse.
Does the Bowguard 360° work on all boat types?
It fits most bow-mounted setups on fiberglass, aluminum, or pontoon boats. Verify mount compatibility with your hull's bow width for a secure install.
