It worked for me... sort ofI’ll give it 3 stars considering I never had any motor issues. It ran fine, powerful for my application. 14’ decked out aluminum v bottom. strong motor. Would tug it around the lake with no problems.
I do agree with the foot control that most have complained about. It’s all plastic, gigantic, and oversteering is a major issue. I honestly thought it was me until I’ve read a lot of reviews where people talked about having the same problem. If you recess the foot pedal in your deck, you’ll have a hard time accessing the momentary control switch. The speed control is accessible but like mentioned earlier. It’s not a great design to use on the fly. If I have it on 2 or 3 moving around a cove and I hook a fish out from under an overhanging tree, in order to stop, you try to kick the speed down, or bend down, flip the switch to off, and hope you didn’t lose your catch because you weren’t reeling. There’s definitely an art to it.
If I could design the features. Make that momentary foot switch not only run the motor, but make it stop the motor as well in continuous mode. That would save a lot of heartache.
I didn’t hate the trolling motor. You get what you pay for. It’s the house whiskey of trolling motors. Don’t by Kentucky Deluxe expecting Jameson quality.

Needs to be more versatileI mounted it on my tracker and there is no way to adjust it to get the motor plumb. Needs to be adjustable. Also needs a light in the direction indicator. It’s noisy but pretty strong.

Nice motor with a lot of good featuresThis trolling motor came preinstalled on my 2018 18ft Bass Tracker. It has a lot of decent features. The foot pedal is clumsy but adequate. Lifting the motor in and out of the water is easy. I have accidently ran this motor into submerged stumps at speed and it took the beating with no issues. I assumed it would be adequately powered. It works well for medium to small lakes on my large 18ft boat. The settings 1 and 2 are fine for trolling the weed edges but when entering weeds only 3-5 will get you through. I started fishing a larger, electric motor-only lake with 2 to 3 grown men riding with me and that is when I realized this motor is underpowered. Crossing the 500 meters from one side to the other takes forever, especially if there is a wind. On setting 5 it is still very underpowered for long distance. On a 15 foot or smaller boat or a smaller lake it would be fine but does not meet my needs anymore.

Great PowerI purchased the Bow Mount Edge 45 to replace my older Minn Kota because the circuit board died. Mounted on the bow of my 18' x 8' Starcraft Jon Boat. The flexible shaft is great. The mechanical foot control is much larger and more difficult to use than the previous electronic foot control. The mechanical steering cable is large and clumsy. Power cable was too short for my setup as I have the battery stored under the deck. I like the ability to be able to remove the motor from the mounting bracket. I am able to store the motor inside. It is easier to pull the motor up onto the bow when not in use. Overall I am pleased with the product but disillusioned with the foot control.

Not all minn kota’s faultBought a new 18 foot aluminum bass boat from bass pro. They put this model trolling motor on there, stock. It’s not powerful enough to pull the boat. It’s difficult to put in and out of the water. It’s been in the shop twice in under 2 years. It cannot handle any sort of weeds at all. A small boat might be fine with this. But really, this is a very underwhelming product.

Horrible speed controlI purchased new boat in Jan. 2018, had I known this trolling motor was on it I would have upgraded, speeds 1 and 2 won't even move my 18 ft aluminum boat and 3 is too fast to fish, told that is the way these are.

Worst productThe trolling motor stopped working on speeds 1 and 2 3,4,5 seem to be working very slow and this is after one summer. I really thought this Minn Kota had a better product. This is the second product that has issues that review will be about there chargers.

is this a gator breakaway?
Asked by: hunter1929
No. The Edge mount does not have a breakaway feature. That is on the Bowguard 360 Maxxums and Fortrex models.

Can this motor be set to run continuously without using the foot control
Asked by: Capt Dick
The motor can be set to continuous on the pedal. That is it will run as long as there is a speed set on it.
