MotorGuide Xi3-55SW - Bow Mount Trolling Motor - Wireless Control - GPS - 55lb-54"-12V Product Description

Discover Unmatched Freedom on the Water with Wireless Precision

Imagine gliding silently across saltwater bays, your eyes locked on the water's surface, without being tethered to the console. This bow mount trolling motor redefines control, blending wireless responsiveness with pinpoint navigation to keep you dialed in on prime fishing spots. Anglers who demand reliability in harsh marine environments rave about its ability to handle choppy conditions while maintaining stealthy operation—up to 40% quieter than many rivals, letting you sneak up on skittish fish without a ripple of noise.

Crafted for serious saltwater pursuits, it features a robust composite shaft that flexes under stress but never breaks, paired with a three-blade Machete prop that slices through weeds and current for consistent power delivery. Whether you're chasing reds in the shallows or drifting live bait over reefs, the electric steer system delivers smooth, variable speeds from a whisper to full throttle, ensuring every cast lands exactly where you want it.

SecureStep System: Effortless Stow and Deploy for All-Day Fishing

Stowing gear mid-fight shouldn't disrupt your rhythm. The innovative quick-release mechanism lets you stand, step, and secure in one fluid motion—no bending, no hassle. This 50% easier deployment shines on smaller crafts like bay boats or kayaks, where space and safety matter most. Visual and audible locks confirm it's stowed tight, giving peace of mind during runs back to the dock.

LED Dashboard: Stay Informed at a Glance

Keep tabs on battery levels (with three-stage indicators), power status, and motor health via an intuitive LED display. No guessing games—just clear, real-time feedback to extend your sessions without running dry.

Pinpoint GPS: Revolutionize Your Anchoring and Routes

Elevate your game with integrated GPS that's three times more accurate than competitors, holding your position rock-steady even in wind or tide. Anchor in place to work structure precisely, or set drift paths that mimic natural currents for lifelike presentations. Save unlimited waypoints for honey holes, program trolling routes at custom speeds, and leverage real-time structure mapping to uncover hidden gems.

For tech-savvy anglers, seamless integration with compatible chartplotters unlocks advanced strategies—view sonar data alongside GPS tracks, automating paths to structure-rich zones. It's like having a virtual spotter, freeing you to focus on the fight.

Digital Power Management: Thrust That Lasts

Engineered for efficiency, this 12V system pumps 55 pounds of thrust through digital components that run cooler and smarter. Safeguards kick in during overloads, while precise throttle control stretches battery life up to five times longer than traditional setups. Paired with a 52-amp draw, it's optimized for deep-cycle batteries, powering long days without fade.

Handheld Remote and Optional Foot Pedal

Control from anywhere on board with the compact wireless remote—steer, speed, and GPS functions at your fingertips. Add a foot pedal for hands-free precision when working lures or nets. Freedom meets finesse.

Built Saltwater Tough with Lifetime Backing

A three-coat anti-corrosion shield protects every inch, from the lower unit to the sophisticated steering transmission. This isn't weekend warrior gear; it's tournament-proven durability for relentless exposure to salt spray and submersion. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, it promises years of faithful service.

Pro tip: Rinse with fresh water after every trip to maximize longevity, and store vertically to prevent shaft warp. Anglers report it outperforming in weedy estuaries, where the prop clears debris effortlessly for uninterrupted runs.
