Overview
A bass boat bow is where this Terrova mounts, with a long shaft, a wireless remote and a heading sensor tied to GPS position hold. The kit also lists a lanyard, an MKP-32 prop and mounting hardware.
Spot-Lock lets the boat hold a spot hands-free, which is the reason to look at a motor in this class.
Who it's for
A lake or river angler with a bow deck wide enough for the mount, who casts to structure and wants the boat to stay in place without touching the pedal. Saltwater boaters should choose a model rated for salt.
Pros and cons
- GPS position hold
- Wireless remote supplied
- Heading sensor included
- Propeller and hardware listed
- Freshwater use only
- Battery not in listed kit
- Bow mount only
Performance notes
The GPS and heading sensor work together so the motor can steer to counter wind and current and hold a set point. Thrust rating sets how much boat weight and wind it can move, and the shaft length has to clear the water from the deck height. Power comes from a twelve volt system, so run time depends on the battery bank.
