Experience Unmatched Precision on the Water
Imagine gliding silently across choppy saltwater bays, effortlessly holding your position over a prime fishing spot while waves crash around you. The MotorGuide X15-80SW delivers that level of control with its advanced wireless GPS system and electric steering that's quieter and more responsive than ever. Designed specifically for demanding saltwater environments, this 80-pound thrust bow mount motor with a 72-inch shaft ensures you stay locked in, no matter the conditions. Anglers in deep-V boats swear by its reliability for everything from inshore trolling to offshore anchoring.
Pinpoint GPS: Your On-Water Anchor and Navigator
At the heart of this motor lies Pinpoint GPS technology, offering pinpoint accuracy that's three times more precise than standard systems. Activate Anchor mode to hold steady against wind and current, or use Jog to make micro-adjustments without disturbing your cast. Heading Lock keeps you on course during drifts, while Cruise Control maintains speed for consistent lure presentation. Whether you're chasing redfish in the flats or battling tuna currents, these features transform chaotic waters into a controlled fishing zone.
- Drift-free anchoring for all-day spot holding
- Quick jog function for subtle repositioning
- Automated heading and speed control for hands-free operation
Built Tough for Saltwater Abuse
Salt spray, submerged logs, and rocky shallows are no match for the composite shaft on this motor. Engineered to flex under pressure and snap back without breaking, it comes with a lifetime warranty that gives peace of mind on every trip. Fully sealed electronics resist corrosion, ensuring years of trouble-free performance even after repeated dunkings in harsh marine environments.
Wireless Freedom from Anywhere Onboard
Forget tangled cords and fixed positions. This motor ships ready-to-use with a wireless foot pedal for precise throttle control and an intuitive handheld remote that works from the helm or bow. Electric steering rotates 50% faster than competitors, responding instantly to your commands for smoother maneuvers and less fatigue during long days on the water.
Seamless Chartplotter Sync
Elevate your setup by integrating with Lowrance, Simrad, or Mercury VesselView displays via NMEA 2000 and a simple gateway cable. Overlay motor data like GPS position, battery status, and steering angle directly on your multifunction display for a unified command center.
Smart Power for Extended Adventures
Digital Power Management squeezes up to five times more runtime from your batteries, letting you fish longer without recharging. The built-in LED dashboard keeps you informed on speed, power draw, and system health at a glance. Plus, optional 83/200 kHz 2D sonar integration provides real-time fish-finding without extra hardware clutter.
Perfect for Deep-V Saltwater Warriors
Tailored for deep-V boats tackling bays, inlets, and nearshore reefs, this 24V motor shines in foot or hand control setups. Its 80 lbs of thrust powers through headwinds and tides, while the 72-inch shaft reaches deeper for optimal prop placement. Saltwater anglers love how it handles the punishment of repeated launches and saltwater exposure.

Pro Tips for Peak Performance
