Ideal For
- Bass Boats

- Anglers Seeking GPS Anchoring and Integrated Sonar
Why Choose the 45" Shaft?
The 45-inch shaft is ideal for many freshwater fishing boats with lower bow heights, providing excellent control while maintaining a clean, compact installation.
It's particularly well-suited for:
- Bass boats
- Aluminum fishing boats
- Jon boats
- Smaller multi-species boats
For boats with higher freeboard or frequent rough-water use, a longer shaft may be recommended. See the Terrova® 55 with 54" shaft as an alternative, or browse all Minn Kota Trolling Motors.

- Minimum 100Ah Capacity
