The 72\" serves the offshore crossover market — larger bay boats and hybrid offshore boats with bow heights of 36–42\". The 84\" steps into a different category: boats with bow heights of 42–48\" that are designed specifically for open ocean fishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy do I need the 84\" instead of the 72\"?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your bow height is between 42\" and 48\", the 84\" is the correct fit. The 72\" is designed for bow heights of 36–42\". On a higher-bow dedicated offshore center console, a 72\" shaft may not reach the water properly — especially in ocean swells. When in doubt, choose the next longer shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I measure my bow height?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure from the mounting surface (where the motor base will sit) to the waterline with a typical fishing load. That measurement determines the correct shaft length. Confirm with Rhodan's official size guide or contact TrollingMotors.shop before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy do I need 36V instead of 24V?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your vessel weighs over 6,000 lbs and you fish dedicated offshore conditions, 24V (80 lbs thrust) may not provide sufficient holding power. The 36V system produces 120 lbs of thrust — 50% more — with greater steering authority in open ocean wind and longer runtime for all-day offshore trips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Gen5 work with Garmin chartplotters?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — the Gen5 integrates natively with Simrad, Raymarine, and Lowrance via Rhodan's MFD Gateway and NMEA 2000.
