Minn Kota PowerDrive™ 70 Trolling Motor w/Micro Remote - 24V - 70LB - 54" Product Description
Imagine gliding silently across the lake at dawn, zeroed in on that perfect weed edge where the bass are stacking up. No fighting wind or current, just precise control that lets you focus on the bite. That's the edge you get with this Minn Kota PowerDrive 70 trolling motor. Built for serious anglers who demand reliability without the hassle, it combines brute 70-pound thrust with smart GPS features to transform how you position your boat. Whether you're chasing walleye in currents or bass in shallow bays, this 54-inch shaft model handles freshwater challenges with effortless power and whisper-quiet operation.
Standout Features That Keep You Fishing Longer
Effortless Deploy-Assist Lever
Launching and stowing shouldn't feel like a workout. A simple lever drop gets the motor in the water fast, and it locks securely when you're trailering. This design saves your back and keeps your routine smooth, even on solo trips or bumpy ramps.
Advanced GPS Trolling for Spot-On Control
Holding position over structure just got smarter. The integrated GPS system lets you set Spot-Locks to anchor virtually—no drifting in wind or waves. Adjust speed and steering from the compact micro remote, giving you fingertip command from anywhere on deck. Paired with AutoPilot, it follows contours or headings automatically, freeing you to cast without constant adjustments.
Smart Battery Management
Push a button for an instant battery readout, so you're never guessing runtime. The Digital Maximizer technology intelligently rations power, stretching a single charge up to five times longer than standard motors. Dial in precise speeds for trolling lures or idling quietly, conserving energy for those marathon days when the fish turn on late.
Unmatched Durability and Performance
The Power Prop slices through heavy cover and open water with superior thrust, while the indestructible composite shaft flexes under impacts but never quits—backed by a lifetime guarantee. Cool-running motors mean less wear and quieter runs, so fish stay unaware as you sneak into range.
Wireless Freedom with Micro Remote
Ditch the foot pedal clutter. The included micro remote puts full control in your hand—steer, speed, Spot-Lock, all from up to 100 feet away. Compatible with One-Boat Network for seamless integration with your fish finder or other electronics.
Why Anglers Swear By It On the Water
In real fishing scenarios, this motor shines. Tournament pros use Spot-Lock to graph structure without an anchor, holding steady through boat wakes. Casual anglers appreciate the variable speeds for slow-trolling crankbaits or live bait rigs. With 24-volt power and max 42-amp draw, it pairs perfectly with deep-cycle batteries on bass boats, pontoons, or jon boats up to 20 feet. The bolt-on bow mount endures rough trails and lake chop, proving its toughness season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this trolling motor suitable for saltwater use?
Designed specifically for freshwater environments, it excels in lakes and rivers. For saltwater, consider Minn Kota's saltwater-rated models with enhanced corrosion resistance.

Spot-Lock uses GPS to hold your boat in place within about 5 feet, even against wind or current. Activate it via the micro remote to stay locked over fish-holding spots.
What batteries do I need for 24V operation?
Two 12V deep-cycle batteries wired in series provide the 24V setup. Group 27 or 31 batteries offer good runtime; always use marine-grade for reliability.
Can I add a foot pedal later?
This model comes with micro remote control but is compatible with optional Minn Kota foot pedals for those who prefer hands-free steering.

It optimizes power delivery for your exact speed, reducing waste and extending battery life up to 5x. Perfect for all-day trips without recharging.
Does the composite shaft really last a lifetime?
Yes, Minn Kota guarantees the shaft against breakage for life. It's engineered to flex on impacts from logs or rocks without cracking.
