Minn Kota Ultrex 112/MSI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth - 36v-112LB - 60"
Minn Kota Ultrex 112/MSI/IP Trolling Motor w/i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth - 36v-112LB - 60" — Product description
Imagine gliding across the water with effortless control, holding your position against wind and current without lifting a finger. The Minn Kota Ultrex 112 MSI with i-Pilot Link redefines trolling motor performance for serious freshwater anglers. Delivering 112 pounds of thrust on a 36-volt system and a robust 60-inch shaft, this bow-mount powerhouse blends intuitive power steering, pinpoint GPS automation, and crystal-clear built-in MEGA Side and Down Imaging sonar. It's designed for boats where precision meets power, helping you focus on the fish rather than fighting the elements.
Effortless Control with Power Steering and Steering Lock
At the heart of the Ultrex experience is its groundbreaking power steering foot pedal. Unlike traditional cable-steer motors that demand constant pressure, this system provides smooth, responsive handling that feels natural from the first step. Release the pedal, and the innovative steering lock keeps the motor head exactly where you point it—no drifting back or unwanted readjustments. Anglers report all-day comfort on long outings, reducing fatigue so you stay sharp for those critical casts. Paired with variable speed forward and reverse, it's ideal for maneuvering through tight spots or maintaining steady drifts over structure.
GPS-Powered Precision: Spot-Lock, Jog, and AutoPilot
Take command of your boat like never before with i-Pilot Link integration. Spot-Lock acts as an electronic anchor, using GPS to hold your position within feet, even in choppy conditions—perfect for working schools of walleye or bass without drifting off your honey hole. Add Jog functionality via the heading sensor to nudge your hold by five feet in any direction. AutoPilot locks onto your chosen heading and adjusts dynamically for wind, waves, and current, freeing you to manage rods and reels. Bluetooth connectivity lets you control it all from a compatible mobile app, including software updates for peak performance.
Superior Sonar: Built-In MEGA Side and Down Imaging
Elevate your fish-finding game with factory-installed MEGA Side and Down Imaging. This advanced sonar delivers hyper-detailed views of structure, baitfish, and gamefish up to 125 feet side-to-side and beneath your boat. Everything stays concealed within the shaft for a streamlined setup—no extra wiring hassles or exposed transducers. It pairs seamlessly with Humminbird units, overlaying real-time motor data on your screen for smarter decisions. Whether probing drop-offs or scanning flats, this imaging uncovers fish others miss.
Maximized Runtime and Unmatched Durability
Digital Maximizer technology optimizes power draw, stretching battery life up to five times longer than standard motors by delivering only the juice you need. The integrated battery meter on the remote keeps you informed of charge levels, preventing surprises mid-day. Built tough for freshwater abuse, the indestructible composite shaft flexes under impacts but never breaks—backed by a lifetime guarantee. Lift-Assist makes stowing and deploying a breeze, halving the effort with its gas-charged spring mechanism. From dawn patrols to dusk bites, reliability is non-negotiable.
Seamless Integration and Everyday Advantages
This trolling motor shines in real-world scenarios: tournament pros use it to repeat exact drifts, family anglers appreciate the hands-free holding power on windy days, and kayak enthusiasts value the compact bow-mount design. Ethernet compatibility links it directly to your electronics ecosystem, while the heel-toe pedal offers momentary bursts of speed for quick adjustments. Setup is straightforward for most users, transforming any compatible freshwater vessel into a precision fishing platform.
Pro Tips for Peak Performance
- Pair with deep-cycle 36V batteries (three 12V in series) for optimal thrust and endurance.
- Calibrate the heading sensor on calm water for Spot-Lock accuracy.
- Rinse with freshwater after brackish use to protect internals.
- Use the app for route recording—great for replaying productive paths on future trips.
- Prop selection like the included MKP-33 or MKP-38 excels in weeds or clean water.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the power steering on this Ultrex model stand out?
Power steering provides ultra-responsive, cable-and-electric steering that's far more intuitive than traditional setups. It eliminates constant foot pressure and includes steering lock for precise, fatigue-free control during extended sessions.
How accurate is Spot-Lock in tough conditions?
Spot-Lock holds position with GPS accuracy better than 5 feet, countering wind, current, and waves effectively. Jog lets you fine-tune by 5 feet in any direction without repositioning the boat.
What boats and water types suit this 60-inch shaft motor?
Optimized for freshwater bow-mount applications on multi-species boats up to 28 feet. The 60-inch shaft clears high freeboards while keeping the prop submerged in moderate chop.
Does the built-in sonar work with non-Humminbird units?
MEGA Side and Down Imaging is designed for Humminbird compatibility, offering the best integration. It can provide basic sonar data to other brands via Universal Sonar 2, but full MEGA features shine with HELIX or SOLIX models.
How does i-Pilot Link enhance my fishing setup?
It connects the motor to Humminbird fish finders via Ethernet, enabling Spot-Lock activation from the screen, contour following, and auto-navigation. Bluetooth adds app control for speed, steering, and firmware updates.
What's the battery setup for 112-pound thrust?
Requires three 12-volt deep-cycle batteries wired in series for 36 volts. Digital Maximizer ensures efficient power use, with the battery meter tracking real-time status.
Is Lift-Assist helpful for solo anglers?
Absolutely— the nitrogen gas-charged spring reduces stow/deploy effort by 50%, making it easy for one person to manage, even on larger boats.
