MotorGuide Xi3-70FW - Bow Mount Trolling Motor - Wireless Control - Sonar - 70lb-60"-24V

Discover Effortless Control on the Water

Imagine gliding silently across the lake, zeroing in on that perfect fishing spot without the usual motor noise giving you away. The Xi3-70FW bow mount trolling motor transforms your boating experience with seamless wireless control right from your hand or anywhere on deck. Anglers rave about its pinpoint precision, letting you focus on the bite rather than fighting controls. Whether you're stalking bass in shallow coves or drifting over deep structure, this motor keeps you locked on fish with minimal disturbance.

Wireless Freedom Without the Hassle

No more tangled foot pedal cords or clunky remotes. The included compact handheld transmitter puts full steering and speed control at your fingertips, effective from bow to stern. Pair it with an optional wireless foot pedal for those hands-free moments when reeling in a trophy. This setup shines during solo trips or when the boat's crowded, ensuring everyone stays comfortable and safe.

Silent Stealth for Bigger Catches

Noise scares fish—it's that simple. Engineered for whisper-quiet performance, this trolling motor operates up to 40% softer than many rivals, thanks to advanced brushless gearing and vibration-dampening tech. Real-world tests from tournament pros confirm it: spooked fish stay put, and your success rate climbs. Perfect for finesse tactics like drop-shotting or finesse jigging where subtlety rules.

Innovative Design for Real-World Fishing

SecureStep: Stow and Deploy in Seconds

Say goodbye to awkward bending or risky climbs. The oversized release lever lets you stow or deploy from a natural standing position, with clear locking cues via lights and sounds. It's a game-changer on choppy days or when wearing waders, reducing slip hazards and saving your back for the long haul.

Digital Power: Efficiency That Lasts All Day

Variable speed dial from idle to full thrust means no wasted energy. Digital management optimizes power delivery, stretching battery life dramatically while generating more consistent torque. Overload protection kicks in automatically during tough conditions like heavy current or wind, keeping your motor safe and ready for the next run.

LED indicators on the mount dashboard give instant reads on power levels, sonar status, and system health—no guessing games when conditions change fast.

Superior Sonar Integration for Spot-On Structure

Built-in dual-frequency sonar (83/200 kHz) cuts through water with exceptional clarity, revealing fish-holding weeds, drop-offs, and schools in vivid detail. The rugged, epoxy-sealed transducer handles repeated impacts from docks or logs without skipping a beat. Temperature sensing adds another layer, helping you track thermoclines where predators lurk.

Adapt easily to popular fishfinders using simple plug-and-play cables—no custom wiring nightmares. Kayak anglers love how it pairs with compact units for portable setups, while bigger boats benefit from Lowrance or Humminbird synergy for full-screen mapping.

Built Tough for Seasons of Hard Use

Composite shaft flexes under stress but won't snap, and stainless hardware resists corrosion in brackish shallows. Freshwater-optimized for lakes and rivers, it thrives in muddy bays or weed-choked backwaters. Shaft length suits mid-sized boats (16-20 ft), providing optimal prop depth without dragging.

Pro Tips for Peak Performance

• Match your battery bank to 24V specs for max runtime—deep-cycle groups deliver best results.
• Rinse the lower unit after sandy launches to extend bearing life.
• Calibrate steering limits to your hull's beam for tighter turns around cover.
• Store stowed upright in off-season to prevent shaft bow.

Fishermen report running full days on tournaments without recharge, crediting the efficient 70lb thrust for punching through wind without strain.
