Minn Kota Ulterra 80 Trolling Motor w/Wireless Remote - MEGA Down Imaging - 24V - 80LB - 60" Product Description
Revolutionize Your Fishing with Effortless Control
Imagine launching your boat at dawn, hitting the water, and letting advanced technology handle the heavy lifting while you focus on landing that trophy catch. The Minn Kota Ulterra 80 stands out in the world of electric trolling motors by combining seamless automation with precision GPS navigation, making it a game-changer for serious anglers chasing bass, walleye, or panfish in freshwater lakes and rivers.
What sets this model apart is its hands-free operation. From the wireless remote to the intuitive foot pedal, every adjustment feels natural, even in rough conditions. Anglers report spending less time fiddling with gear and more time casting, thanks to features built for real-world reliability.
Auto Stow/Deploy: One Button to Rule Them All
Getting on and off the water shouldn't be a workout. Press a button on the wireless remote, foot pedal, or even your Humminbird fish finder, and the Ulterra stows or deploys automatically. This eliminates the hassle of manually lifting a 60-inch shaft motor, reducing wear on your boat and back. In windy launches or crowded ramps, it's a lifesaver that keeps your setup pristine.
Power Trim for Instant Adaptability
Water depths and conditions shift fast—shallow flats one minute, deeper channels the next. Power trim lets you raise or lower the motor instantly from multiple controls, matching your prop to the environment without leaning over the bow. Pair this with variable speeds for smooth transitions that keep lures in the strike zone.
Advanced GPS: Stay Locked on the Honey Hole
Powered by Minn Kota's renowned i-Pilot system, this trolling motor offers Spot-Lock with Jog for GPS anchoring that holds position within inches, even against currents or wind. Jog function nudges your boat 5 feet in any direction via the heading sensor—perfect for dialing in over structure. Drift Mode shines in tough scenarios, giving point-and-shoot control without extra gear like drift socks.
AutoPilot maintains your course automatically, while path recording lets you replay successful routes. Control it all from the remote's clear LCD or the One-Boat Network app on your phone.
MEGA Down Imaging: See What's Hiding Below
Integrated Humminbird MEGA Down Imaging delivers three times the detail of standard sonar, revealing fish, bait balls, and bottom contours in stunning clarity. The transducer mounts cleanly on the motor, keeping your bow sleek and protected. It's like having a built-in fish finder that tracks directly under your boat, ideal for vertical jigging or spotting suspended crappie.
Engineered for All-Day Power and Durability
Digital Maximizer technology squeezes up to five times more runtime from your 24V batteries by optimizing power delivery. At 80 pounds of thrust, it handles larger bass boats effortlessly, drawing a max of 56 amps. The Weedless Wedge 2 prop slices through vegetation, while the indestructible composite shaft flexes under impacts but never breaks—Minn Kota backs it with a lifetime guarantee.
Pro anglers love the heel-toe electric foot pedal with its 18-foot cord and programmable button. Customize it for quick Spot-Lock activation or waypoint marking, streamlining your workflow during tournaments.
Real-World Tips for Maximum Performance
- Battery Management: Pair with deep-cycle Group 31 batteries and monitor via the built-in meter to avoid surprises mid-day.
- Mounting Mastery: Bolt-on bow mount design fits most decks securely; ensure stable platform for optimal GPS accuracy.
- App Integration: Use the One-Boat Network for software updates and remote steering—great for solo fishing or bow-mounted electronics.
- Maintenance Edge: Rinse after saltwater exposure (though optimized for freshwater) and inspect prop for nicks to maintain efficiency.
