The Xi5 Wireless Saltwater Trolling Motor with Pinpoint GPS from MotorGuide® is the result of an extensive commitment to design, engineer, and manufacture best-in-class trolling motors for discerning customers. Enjoy wireless capability right out of the box to command precise motor and steering control from anywhere on the boat with a wireless remote. The Xi5 is stealthy quiet and silky smooth and is constructed to be reliable every day and durable over the long haul. Pinpoint GPS technology takes boat control to the next level with an ultra-precise receiver and 2 digital compasses for best-in-class accuracy.
Durable and reliable, the Xi5 uses a composite shaft backed by a lifetime warranty. Electronics are fully encapsulated and impervious to water and dust. If the prop is stalled, a protection circuit prevents lower unit damage. A low profile mount uses anodized aluminum and hardware components and linkages are stainless steel.
Quiet on the water, the Xi5 uses precision steering transmission gears and low-friction bearings, an extra-rigid shaft support and a low-vibration steering motor, plus refined component interfaces and a smooth-spinning 2-blade weedless prop.
The Xi5 is easy to use with a unique mechanism that aligns and guides the motor into the stowed position and locks it in place.

Motoguide is horrible from
Serous Corrosion Issues after 5 short yearsPerformance wise this unit has been stellar but I noticed about 3 years ago, some rough surface under the paint on the pivot unit along with the lower unit at the time I thought it was just rough castings but now this roughness has grown much worse under the paint and I know it's rusting very badly underneath the paint even though the paint is still fully intact with no nicks or scratches. I asked for some support and Motorguide to look at this and received, "we can't do anything about it" even though they knew about this issue with these models due to bad priming and inferior materials that caused electrolysis, hardly you could call this saltwater proof. I keep this and my boat garaged and get to take it out maybe 10 times a year at best and this is what happens to a $1,400 trolling motor, complete junk and with no support on a known issue? Never again, spend the extra money and go with the other guys or you'll be sorry.

To many problemsI would not recommend the Xi5 because it's hard to work the foot pedal. the batteries keep going dead & when you push down on it a little to long it spins around out of control. i took it in to try and get the foot pedal checked out all the dealer said was it had a low battery which i had just changed out and charged me not warranty. took it right to the lake and the Anchor lock didn't work took it back the dealer said everything checked out Charged me no warranty. Ran back to the lake and it still didn't work. Now I'm waiting for a GPS Module. The dealer thinks that"s it. All the lights say its working but something is not talking to the motor

Don't Buy MotorguideI purchased this GPS trolling motor and I'm sorry I did. Should have bought a Minn Kota. Problems with this motor:
1. The GPS anchoring feature does not work consistently. Sometime I set the GPS to anchor and the boat drifts. Not what it is suppose to do. So it is not reliable.
2. You are suppose to be able to save the anchor locations. When I put the motor in anchor and press the remember button it releases the anchor feature and I drift.
3. Took the motor in for repair and it came back not working with the same problems.
4. There is a serious design flaw with this motor. There is a thin wire that goes into the foot of the motor and attaches to the GPS card. There is
nothing from keeping this wire pulling out of its intended location and detaching from the GPS card. As you put the motor into the water and pull it out of the water this wire rubs against the case of the motor foot and eventually pulls away from the place where it is suppose to be attached.
5. Called the customer service people at Motorguide (Mercury Marine). Nice guys but all they tell you is to take it to a service center. It is a 4 hour trip to the service center. I asked the customer service guy If they could send me a replacement motor. "No we do not do that". You have to take it again to a service center.
Soon I'm going to be buy a replacement outboard and it for sure will not be from Mercury Marine.

Should be fishing from
Do not BuyI had this motor less than a year and maybe used it a half dozen times. Tried to use it this spring and it won't turn left or right. Has now been in the shop for a month and no idea when I'll get it back. Summer is half over. Don't waste your money.

Awesome but some room for software updatesI went all out this summer on the boat with 2 gen3 Lowrance displays networked into my brand new xi5. Overall the gps/anchor lock functions work exactly as advertised. It makes fishing a whole lot easier... whether it's using the anchor lock function while bobber fishing walleyes in Rainy Lake, or being able to focus on my casting and not having to worry about wind or currents while casting for muskies... it works as advertised. Even if you don't have it networked like I do I can't imagine going back to a non gps motor. It's great.
Now a couple of the gripes... every once and a while when you're using the anchor lock, or the heading mode the motor just goes banana's and just goes full power in some random direction for no reason. It happens quite frequently, and from what I've heard from forums is a common issue.
Secondly I have two fully networked Lowrance screens, but I only get the motor information from the main screen and not the front screen. I wish it would mirror the information, and I could control the motor from both screens. As the remote doesn't have a display I find myself having to run back to the main console to check speed settings etc.
Lastly this is just a power issue, but I felt the 74lbs minnkota I took off the boat had more power than the 80lbs thrust Xi5. If I had the room on my boat for the 3rd battery I would recommend the higher thrust model. I can troll about 2mph max in calm water at full power. I've got it on a 2014 tracker targa 18' boat.
Overall a great motor and don't regret the purchase at all. Hopefully Lowrance and Motorguide get serious this winter about some software updates!!

Xi5 Trolling Motor Does GoodI have owned both Minn Kota Terrova 80 and Xi5 Motorguide and the motor guide is smoother and quieter. The remote is not as nice as MinnKota. No LED on Motorguide so you have to remember what you programmed into it.

High hopes dashedWanted to go to a 80 lbs thrust motor on my 175 trophy and decided on the xi5 after some research. I was replacing a MK i pilot and was very excited to try this new motor out, my excitement was over almost as soon as I turned the xi5 on. Right away I tried the anchor mode which does hold very close but the motor goes to full power to get you to your anchor point and was scaring the fish that I wanted to anchor for. I for one found the hand held remote to be a pain, constantly looking over the side to see what speed the motor was running. Things got worse when I used the heading lock and cruise control, found myself making tons of corrections on heading lock and the cruise would suddenly go from set speed
to full power without touching anything. Needless to say by the end of my first trip out I was on my way back to Cabela's and returned the xi5, good thing I didn't sell the old MK.
Thank you for calling Bass Pro Shops. Through the Pinpoint GPS system, this trolling motor has an anchor feature that will constantly make minor adjustments to compensate for wind and current to make sure you stay in place.

I have a sun tracker 22dlx sport fish. What length shaft would I need for it?
Asked by: Racer912
Thank you for your question. Per the manufacturer, to determine the shaft size for a transom mounted trolling motor, like the MotorGuide Xi5 Saltwater Trolling Motor with Pinpoint GPS, “you need to measure the distance from the transom to the waterline when your boat is loaded. You want to take that distance and add at least 20 inches to it. If there isn't a shaft in that size then round up”.

what 24 volt battery tender charger would you suggest
Asked by: twobucks
does the motor shown here have spot lock or anchor feature?
Asked by: stickerman
If you select the Pinpoint GPS option it includes the following:
- Anchor: When at a desired fishing spot, you can lock in the GPS coordinate and remain "anchored" within a few feet, even in wind and current. Save up to eight anchor spots for later use.
- Jog: While in Anchor mode, use the Jog feature to shift your position five feet in any direction. You can Jog as often as you want.
- Heading Lock: Choose a heading and Pinpoint GPS and the Xi5 will keep you on a straight-line course until Heading Lock is released.
- Route Record / Playback: Record and store eight routes up to four miles long each. Return and replay a stored route from anywhere.
- Cruise Control: While under way using Heading Lock or Route Playback, Cruise Control will maintain a constant boat speed. It even makes adjustments for wind and current.

Fishin Barge mounting
How have those that bought this unit mounted them on their Fishin Barges? Mine won't mount because of the trailer blocking the overhang of the mount.
Asked by: Quas225
Per the Manufacturer - They mount it with a removable bracket
