Quick Details
The new MotorGuide X5 Saltwater is an impressive workhorse. This is a solid choice for anglers who seek precision steering control for navigating close to shore and moving around tricky obstacles. This motor also sets a new standard for quiet operation due to its use of composite material in the bushings and stow and deploy mechanisms.
No other MotorGuide has a similar reputation for holding up to the elements and performing exceptionally on the open water. Corrosion, big waves, heat and long days are all expected, and Great White motors are designed to hold up to and excel in these conditions. Standard features include high-thrust motors for easy maneuvering, anodized aluminum mounts to prevent corrosion, a completely sealed digital module and an exceptionally efficient digital motor to provide all-day power
Variable speed motors available in 80 and 105lb thrust. See below for additional product details.

Mounting Details:
This motor is bolted directly to the bow of the boat using the included mounting hardware, and requires drilling into the boat for installation. Ideally, it's best to have access to the underside of the mounting platform in order to secure and fasten the bolting hardware. However, if accessing the underside is impossible you can use no access bolts to secure the motor from the top. For more information see our compatibility and mounting guides.

What fishermen are saying…
i-Pilot is like magic. Like a magician in a black cape standing next to me in my boat sprinkling pixie dust and saying, “Abracadabra! More fish!” Thanks TrollingMotors.net for making this magical purchase so easy and fun. You guys are the best.
Phil in Arcadia, FL
Why buy from Bass Pro or Cabelas when you can buy from these guys? From start to finish this was one of the best, if not the best, online shopping experiences I’ve ever had. The owner answered all my questions, the prices were great, and the motor arrived in two days. Don’t buy anywhere else.

"The personal service provided was fantastic. They responded very quickly to my emails and phone calls. The order was delivered faster than expected. I will definitely (and already have) told others that this is the only place to go for trolling motors.”
Alan in Metairie, LA
"My $1,700 Terrova 80 i-Pilot purchase was a big investment so I was a little nervous ordering my motor online, but I'm sure glad I chose TrollingMotors.net! Not only did they have the motor I was looking for, but I also saved a lot of money. Oh, and the motor arrived the next day. Keep up the great work, guys!”
