Imagine gliding silently across a glassy lake at dawn, positioning your boat exactly where the bass are staging without lifting a finger. That's the everyday reality with the Minn Kota PowerDrive 55 trolling motor. This 12V powerhouse with 55 pounds of thrust and a 54-inch shaft combines rugged durability with smart GPS features, making it a go-to for serious freshwater anglers who demand precision and reliability from their gear.
Crafted for boats that see heavy use, it handles choppy waters, weed beds, and long days on the water with ease. The electric-steer design paired with the included micro remote puts full control in your hand, freeing you to focus on casting lines and reading the water.
Launching and stowing your motor has never been smoother. A simple lever drop gets you in the water fast, and secure stowing at the end of the day protects your setup during trailering. This mechanic saves time and reduces wear, perfect for solo anglers juggling multiple tasks at the ramp.
Anchor virtually anywhere with Spot-Lock, Minn Kota's GPS-based holding pattern that keeps your boat within a few feet of your chosen spot—even in wind or current. Use the micro remote to set waypoints, adjust course, or follow contours. Anglers love how it mimics a traditional anchor but with electronic precision, ideal for targeting structure like drop-offs or humps.
Say goodbye to dead batteries mid-fight. This efficiency tech optimizes power output based on your speed and load, stretching a single charge up to five times longer than standard motors. Dial in subtle speeds for finesse presentations or crank it for quick repositions without draining your group 24 or 27 battery.
One quick press reveals your battery's charge level at a glance. No guesswork means you plan your day smarter, avoiding those heartbreaking moments when power fades during prime feeding windows.
The MKP-37 Power Prop slices through vegetation and heavy loads with superior thrust in open water. Paired with the lifetime-guaranteed composite shaft, it shrugs off rocks, stumps, and impacts that would snap lesser materials. Cool, quiet operation extends motor life, keeping noise low to avoid spooking fish.
In real-world scenarios—from walleye tournaments to family bass trips—this motor shines. The AutoPilot feature holds your heading automatically, letting you multitask like tying rigs or netting fish. Power steering responds instantly via remote, making tight maneuvers around docks or laydowns intuitive.
One-Boat Network compatibility opens doors to future upgrades, integrating seamlessly with fish finders for enhanced navigation. Bow-mount design fits most freshwater setups, from jon boats to bass rigs, with a bolt-on mount that's engineered for abuse.

Spot-Lock uses GPS to hold your boat's position within about 5 feet, acting like an electronic anchor. It's invaluable for staying over productive spots in wind or current without drifting.
It intelligently manages power delivery based on your selected speed and conditions, using up to 5 times less energy than non-digital motors, allowing full-day fishing on one charge.
Designed primarily for freshwater, it excels in lakes and rivers. For saltwater, consider Minn Kota's dedicated models with enhanced corrosion resistance.
No foot pedal is included; control is via the wireless micro remote for hands-free operation from anywhere on the boat.
This Minn Kota exclusive flexes on impact rather than breaking, backed by a lifetime guarantee. It withstands rocks, logs, and docks far better than aluminum shafts.
While this model has core GPS functions, One-Boat Network compatibility allows integration with compatible systems for expanded capabilities like advanced autopilot.
