What is Trolling Motor?
A trolling motor is a self-contained unit that includes an electric motor, propeller, and controls, and is affixed to an angler’s boat, either at the bow or stern.
A gasoline-powered outboard used in trolling, if it is not the vessel’s primary source of propulsion, may also be referred to as a trolling motor.

How long will a 12v battery run a trolling motor?
How long does one 12-volt deep-cycle marine battery last with this trolling motor? The runtime depends on the Amp-Hour rating of the battery.
Theoretically, a 50AH battery on our 55lb thrust motor will run continuously at the highest speed for an hour.
What size trolling motor do I need for a 16-foot boat?
Larger boats require more thrust to get them moving through the water. Typically, these motors are rated by their thrust, measured in pounds. For example, a 55lb thrust trolling motor works well for a boat between 12 and 16 feet.
What is the purpose of trolling motor?
Trolling motors allow a boat to stay in one spot when fighting against current or wind without deploying a physical anchor.
Tilt the outboard engine out of the water and use the trolling motor to explore areas that are otherwise to shallow to access.
