MotorGuide Xi3-70FW - Bow Mount Trolling Motor - Wireless Control - GPS - 70lb-54"-24V Product Description
Imagine gliding silently across a glassy lake at dawn, zeroed in on that school of bass you've been chasing all season. With the MotorGuide Xi3-70FW bow mount trolling motor, those moments become effortless. This powerhouse combines wireless freedom, pinpoint precision, and rugged durability tailored for serious freshwater anglers who demand more from their gear. Whether you're finesse fishing weedlines or battling current in a river mouth, its 70 pounds of thrust and 54-inch shaft deliver the control you need to stay on fish longer.
Wireless Control That Puts You in Command
Forget tangled cables or awkward pedal positioning. The Xi3-70FW's intuitive handheld remote lets you steer, adjust speed, and manage functions from anywhere on the boat—perfect for casting while keeping your position dialed in. Pair it with the optional wireless foot pedal for those hands-free days when every second counts. Anglers rave about how this setup transforms solo trips, letting you hop between rod holders without losing momentum.
SecureStep System: Stow and Deploy Like a Pro
Stowing a trolling motor shouldn't feel like wrestling a bucking bronco, especially after a long day hauling trophy walleye. The Xi3's SecureStep lever makes it 50% easier than many competitors, with a single, ergonomic motion from a standing position. Visual and audible cues confirm it's locked tight, so you can trailer home worry-free. This design saves your back and keeps you focused on the water ahead.
Pinpoint GPS: Revolutionize Your Spot Management
What sets the Xi3-70FW apart is its built-in Pinpoint GPS, proven three times more accurate than rivals. Anchor virtually on structure without drifting, jog back to exact spots after a snag, or replay proven routes at preset speeds. Integrate seamlessly with major sonar brands for waypoint storage, route planning, and real-time mapping. Picture this: you mark a hump that lit up on your graph, hit anchor, and fight fish while the motor holds you steady—no wind or current drama.
Digital Power Management for All-Day Runtime
Powered by 24 volts and 42 amps, this motor's digital brains manage power efficiently, stretching battery life up to five times longer than basic setups. Variable speed control from zero to full throttle runs cooler and quieter—40% less noise means spooked fish stay put. The LED dashboard keeps tabs on power levels, prop status, GPS, and battery health, even under harsh sunlight.
Built for Freshwater Warriors
Designed exclusively for freshwater pursuits, the Xi3-70FW bow mount thrives in lakes, reservoirs, and rivers. Electric steering ensures smooth, responsive handling, while the composite shaft flexes under stress without cracking. Backed by a solid three-year warranty, it's the reliable partner for multi-day tournaments or family outings alike.
Real-World Tips from Seasoned Anglers
Pair it with deep-cycle batteries for optimal performance, and mount it forward for maximum bow leverage in choppy conditions. For shallow water runs, trim up slightly to avoid props in stumps. Regular freshwater rinses keep the lower unit humming season after season. Users often highlight its compatibility with ghost trolling setups, where ultra-low speeds shine for suspended crappie.
