How much Thrust? Boat weight is key when determining how much thrust you need. General rule of thumb: you need at least 2 lbs. of thrust for every 100 lbs. of fully-loaded boat weight (people and gear included). If things like wind or current are major factors where you fish, you’ll want a little extra thrust.

How do I select trolling motor Thrust?

Refers to how powerful the motor is. Boat weight is key when determining how much thrust you need. General rule of thumb: you need at least 2 lbs. of thrust for every 100 lbs. of fully-loaded boat weight (people and gear included). If things like wind or current are major factors where you fish, you’ll want a little extra thrust.

How do I select Battery Power?

Indicates how much battery power your trolling motor requires. You’ll need 1 battery for every 12 volts in your trolling system. 55 lbs. of thrust or less = 12 volts, 1 battery 68-80 lbs. of thrust = 24 volts, 2 batteries 101-112 lbs. of thrust = 36 volts, 3 batteries

MEGA IMAGING AND SONAR – DIRECTLY FROM THE MOTOR

The Built-in MEGA Imaging options provide MEGA Side Imaging+ and/or MEGA Down Imaging+ along with 2D Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar to select Humminbird models. For complete compatibility, see the chart below.

PLEASE NOTE: You can only view MEGA Down and Side Imaging with a MEGA DI or MEGA SI HELIX G2N or G3N Series model and a required adapter, or with any SOLIX Series model. The built-in transducer cannot supply MEGA Imaging to Humminbird models that do not already have the capability. If you have a G2/G2N or a G3/G3N HELIX that is not a MEGA SI or MEGA DI model, you will still get 2D Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar from the transducer. SOLIX G1 and HELIX G2 and G2N units need to be running the latest software update to view sonar from motors with Built-In MEGA Imaging. You can get the latest version of software for your fish finder here. Built-In MEGA Imaging is not supported by HELIX G1 models or other brands of fish finders.

The Built-In MEGA DI and MEGA SI transducers are only available on new models equipped from the factory and cannot be added to an existing trolling motor
