MotorGuide 940200110 X3 Freshwater Bow Mount Trolling Motor with Foot Control - 24V (70 lbs.), 45" Shaft

Installation was straightforward. In operation I noticed that this unit is quieter than the Evinrude that it replaced. Also noticed that it does not have the torque feedback in the pedal that the old Evinrude had. This is a good thing! As far as thrust/performance goes, it's comparable to the Evinrude. Can't comment on reliability as I just bought it, but, if it lasts as long as my last motor it will be a winner. If you are looking for a basic trolling motor without all of the fancy electronics, then this one will work fine. It shoves my 20' bass boat around with ease in calm water. Have not tested it yet in rough water.

Great item for the price! Easy to attach where the old one was. Great addition to my boat, I would purchase again!

My initial impression is that it is not as well built as my old Motor Guide 24v 55 lbs. Seems to work well and is more powerful. Not bad for the price.

Never received my order, and after 3 calls the assistant cancelled my order unknown to me. Had to make 4 calls to get it straightened out. Still haven't received an email of confirmation.

Bought this so I could increase thrust for trolling. I owned a Minn Kota. This motorGuide is harder to steer, noisier, vibrates and they have the on off switch located under the outside of your foot instead of under you big toe. I have to use my left foot and that for me is awkward. Also the speed control nob is for shoes on adjustment only. You can not turn it with bare foot and is even hard to turn by hand. If it wasnt for the increase in thrust and the time use in install I would have returned it. Right now I'm going to suffer and hope I get use to it. Next time it will be MinnKota.

Lasted 3 years and the lower shaft broke. the lower motor didn't hit anything it just broke away. Tried to contact motor guide and apparently because we didn't buy it directly from them there was no warranty. Called a local repair shop they don't repair motor guide anymore. The newer ones are NOT REPAIRABLE Said they had called or wrote motor guide complaining of the poor quality in the last 3-5 years. Motor guide doesn't seem to care enough. Too bac we've used motor guide for 25 year. Now we're moving on to something else
