motorguide Digital 45lbs transom mount or bow

[zucas922]

Has anyone here used the motorguide 45lbs digital yet or equivalent ? looking at getting one over the others for my new duck , they say its very light on juice with more pulling power , is this true?

I used to have a 54 lbs jarvis marine and it ate batteries for breakfast!! 4 hours per battery max on a large dam and thats not going over power setting number 3

Minn Kota's are better in the weeds and I find they are lighter on the Juice

I was looking at getting that same motor.

Read the reviews on the Bass Pro Shop website (at that stage there were 10 reviews) and the average wasn't great, something like 2.7 out of 5! 4 People loved it/thought it was okay an 6 people hated it!

Have a look for yourself

I have decided against purhacing this motor!
