If you're the kind of demanding freshwater fisherman who gets up and sets his hooks before first light, then you require a 45 PowerDrive™ V2 electric steering motor. It sports a tough design, has ultrafast response, and it gets you anywhere you need to go on the water. PowerDrive V2's new deploy-assist lever allows you to get to the fish quicker and easier than ever before. No more wrestling with the trolling motor in heavy waves and current ™ just push down on the cam-lock lever to get the trolling motor down in the water. When you're ready to pull up the motor, this lever system makes it much quicker and easier to be on your way. The newly designed foot pedal gives you infinite and precise adjustability of your speed control and features momentary and constant settings. It also allows more decisive turning capability. A new waterproof, ergonomic design allows less fatigue after a full day on the water. New IP68 waterproof connections are the industry's highest standard and improve the overall reliability and performance. Comes complete with an 18-ft. cord to allow you to control the motor from anywhere in your boat. You can't beat the Digital Maximizer technology that supports up to five times longer run time on a single charge. By controlling the draw of power at variable speeds, Digital Maximizer eliminates wasted energy, extends battery life and gives you more time on the water.

Nice motor, bit tricky getting it back to mount
Date:
Got the V2 PowerDrive and bought the extra mounting plate which is a necessity, because it allows you to slip the motor off your boat with ease when you store your boat. This motor will pull a 14' boat with two big guys and a load of equipment with ease, almost 2 knots on calm water. The foot control is very sensitive so the steering takes a bit of getting used to. When I'm on the wide open and trolling, I put the foot control on CON (constant propulsion) and cruise under constant propulsion until I get close to the weeds or rocks. Then, I put it on slow speed INT (intermittant propulsion, which only works the prop when you hit the go pedal). In the INT mode, I just give the pedal little taps to inch into the shallows, then stop, anchor and cast. The trick is to just use little taps on the control to finesse your way into the rough stuff when in the INT mode.
The steering is a bit sensitive, and the shaft is also a bit of a bear to wrestle back into the storage position (one part holds the prop head on the bottom, one part screws on to the top of the head to hold it tight for transport), the only downsides for me. Overall, good power, steering is a tad tricky but will come with time, will have to see how it endures over the season.
