Quick Details
The Minn Kota Ulterra needs no introduction. With its legendary auto stow, deploy and power trim, thousands of fishermen have been able to enjoy more fishing, with less effort, at the push of a button. Perhaps you fish alone or you’d rather not climb up on your bow just to stow and deploy your trolling motor. Whatever the case may be, the latest Ulterra 80 continues to provide effortless performance for anglers who just want to concentrate on one thing, catching more fish.
Make no mistake, this Ulterra 80 is no one trick pony. In addition to its auto stow/deploy and power trim adjustment, the Ulterra features Minn Kota's latest "Advanced GPS" technology (previously i-Pilot/i-Pilot Link) coupled with a redesigned wireless remote offering more auto-navigation features such as "Drift Mode" and "Dodge”. Tap into Minn Kota's One Boat Network to control your motor, enable GPS auto-navigation, mapping features and imaging from select Humminbird fish finders or the updated smartphone app.
The Ulterra 80 also comes standard with Humminbirds' latest Dual Spectrum CHIRP sonar (DSC) which provides a wider range of frequencies producing more detailed returns of fish than the previous US2 sonar. Optional integrated MEGA Down imaging provides incredibly detailed down scan when connected to a compatible Humminbird fish finder.
Standard features for the Minn Kota Ulterra 80 (24v): Auto-stow/deploy with power trim, multifunction foot pedal, wireless remote, Advanced GPS technology, Digital Maximizer, Heading Sensor, Composite Shaft, Weedless Wedge 2 Prop, Bluetooth, Smartphone App and Two Year Warranty. Also included: Humminbird Helix transducer adapter cable and ethernet adapter cable for Minn Kota's One Boat Network integration with select Humminbird fish finders.

2024 Ulterra 80 Full Details
Recommended for:
Medium freshwater center console, Carolina skiffs, Deep-V, flats boats, Pontoon, Fish N' Ski and general fishing boats. The 24v - 80 lbs thrust motor is recommended for boats with a fully laden weight up to 4,000lbs and lengths up to 20'. However, fishing conditions, hull design/shape and intended use all have a significant impact on calculating the appropriate amount of thrust for your boat. For more help determining the right thrust for your boat please refer to our Trolling Motor Thrust Guide.
How It's Unique
In many respects, the Freshwater Ulterra 80 has the same features, specs and intended use as Minn Kota's popular Freshwater Terrova line of trolling motors. However, there is one powerful difference; the Ulterra also includes auto-stow and deploy along with power trim. Raise, lower and adjust the prop height of the Ulterra all with the push of a button on your wireless remote, multi-function foot pedal, Humminbird fish finder and even your phone.
Whatever the choice, you can't go wrong with the Ulterra or Terrova; both are top of the line trolling motors with the latest technology and incredible performance. The only choice you really need to make is whether you want to stow and deploy the motor by yourself or let the Ulterra do the work for you.

Available Upgrades:
Mounting Details:
This motor is bolted directly to the bow of the boat using the included mounting hardware, and requires drilling 4-6 bolts into the hull 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 motor mounting bolts to secure the motor from the top. For more information see our compatibility guides or download motor installation instructions and heading sensor instructions.
If you wish to take the motor on and off your boat, you can also opt for a quick release bracket which is a very popular choice. The Minn Kota MKA-21 Quick release bracket is a great option for this Ulterra 80.
Motor Mount Dimensions:
18 5/16" length x 10/14" width
Motor Voltage and Batteries:
The Ulterra 80 is a 24 volt motor and requires two (2), 12-volt marine batteries or (1) 24v LiFePO4 lithium battery (min 50AH rating). For more information on the proper batteries to purchase for your trolling motor, see our Trolling Motor Battery Selection Guide.
Motor Wiring Details:
The Ulterra 80 can be wired directly to the battery or it can be used in conjunction with a plug and receptacle for a cleaner, more professional installation. If using a quick release bracket, a plug and receptacle like the Minn Kota MKR-28 will allow you to plug and unplug the motor from the batteries for easy removal and re-mounting.
To protect your motor from damage, a circuit breaker is highly recommended.
Shielded, marine grade wiring should be used to connect the motor to the power source (aka batteries!). To determine the appropriate gauge wiring download this circuit breaker and wiring table.
If using 2 - 12v, lead acid or AGM batteries, they must be wired "in series" to create the proper voltage for this 24v motor. For instructions on how to properly wire 12v batteries in series, take a look at our 24v-36v trolling motor wiring diagram.
Power Lead Length:
Two 5' power leads (red and black) ending in terminal rings (aka lugs). Minn Kota motors do not come from the factory with trolling motor power plugs. A new power plug can be crimped or heat shrunk onto the power leads; make sure to have a matching receptacle installed in the hull. If you are replacing an existing motor that has a plug already installed, you can transfer it to the new motor's power leads.
NOTE: Although most power plugs and receptacles are universally compatible regardless of voltage, make sure that they are rated at 60amps or more. Minn Kota and Marinco offer high-quality, reliable plug and receptacle sets.
Pedal Cord Length:
18' Cord

Amperage Draw:
56 amps at maximum speed
Motor Run Time:
Important Note: Calculating run time is very difficult due to the many factors involved. As you likely won't be running your trolling motor 100% of the time, the actual amount of on-the-water time will be longer than continuous motor run times listed below. Trolling motor run time can vary depending on the boat, operating conditions (winds, waves, etc) and the type of battery used. Listed below are run-time estimates assuming a 100 amp hour rated batteries. To learn more, please see our article on calculating motor run time.
- 20+ Hours: At slow, trolling speeds that draw 5 amps or less
- 4.8 Hours: Approx. run time with throttle 50% open
- 2.4 Hours: Approx. run time with the motor at full throttle
Stow and Deploy Method:
The Ulterra is an auto-stow and deploy motor. With just the push of a button on the wireless remote, the foot pedal (or even your phone!) you can remotely raise and lower the motor. The power trim feature also allows you to adjust the prop height to optimal depth.
Motor Steering Type:
The motor is steered via the included Advanced GPS remote control or a multi-function foot pedal. The Ulterra 80 can also connect (aka network) to compatible Humminbird fishfinders via an ethernet connection. This networking feature is part of Minn Kota's "One Boat Network" and allows you to control your motor directly from the Humminbird and tap in to additional auto-navigation and mapping features.
Downloading Minn Kota's One Boat Network smartphone app and pairing it to your motor enables you to use your phone as a full function wireless remote. You can also use the app to pair up with compatible Humminbird fish finders to access numerous mapping and auto-navigation features.

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.
Jason in Lake Charles, TX
"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!”
