New release from motorguide?

[jcrevard]

New motor or just a new updated website?
Any rumors or guesses or did I completely miss it?

Them, Garmin and Lowrance for sure have something coming out in the trolling motor game. I think Minn Kota has something going as well.

One that works without all the problems they all have now would be nice

Well mine has been working great, but I've had some issues that turned out to be the user

Is it a remote made by someone other than the Chinese version of Fisher Price? My favorite Xi5 feature.....when the head spins around 3-4 times and snaps the cables!

Ah yes....good times

Maybe a waterproof remote that lasts more than a year (Minn Kota), that would be a great upgrade!

realy motorguide.


I have had for 3 years with motor spazing out getting worse over time. and now wont even heading hold... now they say they have a new one coming out I got one email.. mine past warrenty have only used like 30 times and now its a pain in the but.


reading all over the internet that everyone is having to replace the gps module. some replacing twice..


why would anyone want a motor guide other then it works with Lowrance. well it dosnt work but they say it dose..

You know that misery loves company...So it's not just Motorguide that has problems. I installed the latest software updates for my MinnKota Ulterra on Wednesday and went fishing last night (Thursday) and the motor worked flawlessly for the 1st hour or so then the remote kept telling me..."Motor Not Found". Thankfully it was stowed at that time but it also removed the software from the Humminbird and the Remote. Spent a couple of hours on the phone today with Humminbird and MinnKota. Finally got it reloaded and will try it tomorrow. I have to use a rubber band on the cable that charges the remote so it will stay in place. I can't believe someone would engineer something so stupid. I hope Garmin comes out with a motor and locator that actually works as advertised as I will be the first person in line to purchase one. No more HB and MinnKota Junk! Don't get me started on "Follow the Contour" that rarely works.

I think minn Kota sub contracted the remote and charger to Fisher Price! They are like a toy for sure.
