Minn Kota Endura C2 30 Trolling Motor w/Battery Meter - 12V - 30LB - 30" Product Description
Discover the Reliability of the Endura C2 30 Trolling Motor
Anglers who demand dependable performance on the water swear by the Endura C2 series. This compact powerhouse has earned its spot as a staple on countless small boats, kayaks, and canoes. With 30 pounds of thrust from a single 12-volt battery, it slices through calm freshwater lakes and slow-moving rivers, letting you focus on landing that next catch rather than fighting the current or wind.
What sets this model apart? It's engineered for everyday explorers who want simplicity without sacrificing durability. Whether you're casting from a jon boat or maneuvering a lightweight craft, the intuitive controls and rugged build ensure smooth operation from dawn till dusk.
Standout Features That Make a Difference
Lever Lock Bracket for Rock-Solid Mounting
Secure your motor effortlessly with the 10-position lever lock bracket. Crafted from reinforced composite materials, it shrugs off flexing, warping, and harsh UV exposure. The quick-release design means you can stow it in seconds at the dock or ramp—no tools required. This bracket stays put even during bumpy rides back to shore.
Telescoping Tiller for Comfortable Control
Adjust the 6-inch telescoping tiller to fit your stance perfectly, whether sitting or standing. It delivers precise, intuitive steering that feels natural from the first pull. No more awkward reaches or strained wrists on long outings.
Versatile 5 Forward / 3 Reverse Speeds
Dial in exactly the power you need with five forward speeds for cruising and three reverse options for backing off structure. This setup provides fine-tuned control, helping you hover over prime spots without spooking fish.
Power Prop Tackles Tough Vegetation
Push through lily pads, weeds, and muck with the included Power Prop. Its wide blade design grabs more water for superior bite, and it comes ready to install with a prop pin, nut, and washer. Ideal for weedy bays where others bog down.
Lifetime-Guaranteed Composite Shaft
The heart of this motor is its unbreakable composite shaft—a Minn Kota hallmark. It flexes on impact to absorb shocks from rocks or logs but bounces back every time. Backed by a lifetime guarantee, it outlasts aluminum alternatives in real-world abuse.
Cool, Quiet Running for All-Day Use
Advanced engineering keeps the lower unit cool under load, preventing overheating on hot afternoons. Plus, it runs whisper-quiet, so you won't alert nearby fish or disturb the peace of your solo trip.
Push-to-Test Battery Meter
Never get stranded—simply press the button on the head for an instant read on remaining battery charge. Pair it with a quality deep-cycle 12V battery (around 100Ah recommended for extended runs) and plan your day with confidence.
Maximize Performance with Smart Setup and Care
Transom-mount this hand-steer motor on vessels up to 14 feet for optimal results in freshwater. Aim for a stern height that keeps the prop submerged 12-18 inches. Use a group 27 or 31 deep-cycle battery to match the 30-amp max draw, and check connections before launch.
For maintenance, rinse with fresh water after brackish trips (though freshwater-optimized), inspect the prop for dings, and store the shaft tilted up. This simple routine keeps it humming season after season, backed by a two-year warranty.
Pro tip: In windy conditions, drop to lower speeds for better efficiency and battery life. Anglers love how it maintains steady headway against mild chop, making it a go-to for bass tournaments or family fishing outings.
