Minn Kota Terrova

Review By Stantheman

The Minn Kota Terrova is well built to deserve its place in the company that makes the best fishing boat motors. This motor is packed with exciting features that will keep you on the water way after your peers have thrown their fishing poles up in to the air and gone home. Another thing that will make you want to stay on the water is the two beamed Universal Sonar. This tool tells you the water's temperature, very useful information since knowing the water's temperature will tell you exactly what type of fish will be in that area of the water, so you can decide whether you should stay or move on.

The foot pedal, deploy lever, co-pilot accessory and composite shaft are all features that Minn Kota have mastered on the Minn Kota Terrova.

The foot pedal is a luxurious wide pedal that responds to the slightest pressure. It is also waterproof which makes so much sense on a fishing boat. You can also steer and control the boat's speed with this foot pedal. The speed settings on the Terrova are all completely variable.

The deploy lever makes it easy for you to stow and setup your motor. You can turn it off and stow it in one swift easy act. There is no great skill necessary to set up or put away your fishing motor.

The copilot mechanism makes it possible for you to roam freely on your boat while still being in complete control of your boat. You can control your boat with a mechanism that attaches to your wrist, rod or lanyard. You can truly surpass your peers with this mechanism.

The approximate cost of a new Minn Kota Terrova starts at just $760.00 dollars. This is for the Terrova 55 you can also get this one used in some places for as low as $690.00 dollars.

The Minn Kota Terrova is available in maximum thrusts of 55, 80 and 101. The volts available on the thrusts are 12, 24 and 36 and the shaft lengths are 48", 45", 54" and 60" these sizes will fit most fishing boats.
