Rated 4 out of 5 by skeeterf80 good for the money
bought an edge 45, a couple years ago, i abuse the heck out of it and it never skips a beat, the direction indicator wont stay accurate, i fix it once in a while but it never stays right, other than that its bulletproof

Rated 2 out of 5 by dicko5641 Motor Blew on third use
Not sure if I got a bad motor or not but the motor blew after the third use, started making weird noises and lost a lot of power. It has a lot of power out of the box for a 45 and is user friendly but I am going to upgrade to a maxxum on my return.

Rated 5 out of 5 by mackyj82 Awsome 70lb 24v
Installed the edge 70lb 24 volt on my bass boat and it def does the job. Went from a motorguide 12v and totally out performs(obviously 12 to 24v) but i fish in a strong current and dont have to put on high going against the current. Installation took about 1.5hrs. Little tougher than the last but all in all I love this Unit. Def recommend this product!!

At this time, I am not sure what your measurement space to mount the motor on your Grizzly Boat. However, below photo is a diagram of the mount and measurements. I hope this helps. ThanksImages for this Answer

A:
The mount is included with this trolling motor, I do not believe there is room on the bow of the Pond Prowler to mount this motor. You would have to fabricate a platform to mount this on the bow.Details:
I measure 32 inches from top of boat to water line,would a 45 inch shaft be long enough?I dont fish too much rough water.Answers
A:
I would be safe and go for the 52" shaft.You want the motor head to be aleast 8-12 inches under the surface of the water at all times.The MinnKota web site should have a calculator for determining the correct shaft length..Details:

Yes, I mounted the transducer for my 788 ci di hd combo on my edge 45. There is not a whole lot of room to spare but have had no problems after 100s of hours of use.Answers
A:
Fixed speeds, 1 through 5.......position 4 is like 40 lbs of thrust and 5 is a full 70lbs, I'd look elsewhere.
A:
The Minn Kota Edge motors are 5 speed.Answers
A:
The depth of your boat.
A:
To determine your shaft length measure from the mounting surface to the waterline with your boat fully loaded.. For rough water conditions, add 5” to the waterline measurement. For hand-control trolling motors, add 12” to recommended shaft length.Answers
A:
I have been using mine for a few weeks now. What may be surprising is, I have a torn rotator cuff and need surgery, yet I can still raise and lower pretty easily.

A:
I have my second Minn Kota Edge 45 and it is a little stiff to pull the rope. However, it is best to put a little pressure on the head of unit to help the pins release as you pull the rope to deploy the motor. Retrieving the motor is easy and simple and I have had no problems.A:
Retrieve is ok, but deploying is beyond ridiculous. I have 20+ year old Minn Kota All Terrains that have the same technology.1 of 1
