Seamax 12V PowerMax 2HP Brushless Trolling Motor, Stepless Speed Control, Equal to 65 Lb Thrust, 35 Inch Shaft

I wish I had a video to add. I will hopefully update with one soon. I put this into a filled bath tub to see the amount of thrust compared to a 30lb minnkota. I could put the minnkota on high and hold it in place with ease. (I'm 28 years old and I'm no weakling) When I put this beast in, I couldn't hang onto it at 1/3 power. VERY impressed. I'm using this on my 14ft dinghy so I can not only troll but also use it as an outboard. I can tell ya fellers. She's got some oomph! Can't wait to see how fast it goes. Very well built as well. It is actually lighter, yes lighter, than a 30lb minnkota which was quite surprising as well. The controller is quite large but has a lot of nice features and feels really well built. Now for the negative, yes it has a wine and when people say whine it's that wine you heard on a remote control car as you would start to accelerate it but a bit louder due to the size motor differences. It can be a bit ear piercing due to the frequency. Not gonna lie tho, if you go brushless with a fully variable handle at this price, your gonna have a hard time avoiding that whine. I'm ok with it as long as it doesn't get too much louder with load. Conclusion: If you want powerful and a reliability built trolling motor to scoot your dinghy, kayak, or small boat around that serves as both a trolling motor and a small outboard? This is it. Great low and high speeds. Edit: owned now for over a year with no problems. great power and i use it as my main propultion source on my dinghy and my 16' alumacraft. works well on both applications. very pleased with the performance!

This motor has good power but is quite noisy; NOT suitable for sight fishing or in stealth situations. It is a good “main” motor on electric only waters.

When I first started looking at trolling motors, I was shocked how many still use brush motors! Brushless motors are smaller, quieter, last longer and are more efficient. The motor also has a built in power management system. I love the stepless throttle too, allowing me to get just the right about of thrust.

Powerful trolling motor. I use it on 10' Pelican and really do I go over 1/2 throttle. It really does move the boat well. Also, my first impression is that it conserves battery usage very well. Would certainly buy again!!

If you're just looking for a trolling motor to take you from A to B, it performs like it's supposed to. The transition from off to on though is where my rating drops... It wants to go full speed before slowing back down to your setting, so stealthy is not its middle name. Mechanically, it's quite noisy, compared to any other trolling motors I've had.

es muy buen motor, la verdad estoy muy contento con el rendimiento, lo he probado en una laguna pero con algo de viento, no creo que funcione bien en el mar, bueno si es un mar muy tranquilo puede que si

They have the same power like 18lb trust and They make a noise when it’s running

The only reason this company didn't get 5 stars is there claimed horsepower. This has been addressed in previous reviews. I would say this product provides the highest possible propulsion capable in 12 volts. I have bought a lot of trolling motors over the years and this one is best! (amongst the budget based). I hook it up to a large lithium pack and it will run fully open for the longest time. (maybe the brushless efficiency?). I had a question about the motor for the distributer. I called and left a message on their recorder. They were apologetic for not getting back to me sooner but "they had a boat show last weekend and this was the soonest they could get back to me" So I would say greatgreat customer service too!

This motor performs quite well on our catamaran, reaching speeds of about 6 km/h at full throttle. With approximately 400 Ah of LiFePO4 batteries and a solar panel, it handled our 50 km trip on Maligne Lake effortlessly. While it can be a bit noisy at full speed, reducing the throttle slightly makes it quieter. The motor is also compact, and the handle tilts down for easy storage. It's quite durable too; although the propeller grazed some rocks and picked up a few scrapes, it remains in good condition. However, the battery indicator may not be entirely accurate since we are using LiFePO4 batteries. Customer service has been incredibly kind and helpful, so I highly recommend reaching out to them if you encounter any issues or questions. Edit: We went to Maligne Lake again, it handled pretty well, except for some vibrations at times, but was still very good!

Puissant, efficace mais bruyant, surtout si on le compare à un MinnKota

Had two Minn Kotas and one Greenworks in the past. This one just blows them out of the water. No pun intended. LOL. Very quiet and I mean very quiet. Not sure why there is complaints about noise. Throttle is amazingly smooth. Motor is a real powerhouse for an electric as well. Goes along at a nice speed at full throttle. I would compare it to a 2.5 gas outboard. It just feels more robust and solid than anything I have had in the past. Went fishing today with a friend and I have a Lifepo 12 volt 100 ah battery. After 8 solid hours of running the battery came back to 80% of its charge within two minutes on my charger. To be honest I was reluctant to buy one as there are mixed reviews. I only go on fresh water and if my first impression is anything to go on, this has got to be the best little electric motor on the market. I would recommend it with no reservations.

Powers 14' tin boat well. Trolled with it a couple hrs a day at lowest speed setting for a week lake fishing using a 100 amp HR LiFpO4 battery and did not need to recharge battery. Efficient use of power. It is a bit noisy. Appears to be well built. Time will tell. Price cannot be beat.

Bon mes tests sont finis 1 Tres Tres BRUYANT ,draine assez vite la batterie NEUVE 12v 100 amp deep cycle jai fait le test dans un chalouppe tracker 12 pieds (avec ma conjointe 310 lbs total les deux personnes) max vitesses 6 km je le ne le conseille pas
