  • Used this on our 24 foot pontoon as main motor
Style: 86lb Thrust
The media could not be loaded. UPDATE: It's not a common brand, but it's a good brand! I'll give it to them(Newport vessel) we have this 86lb thrust motor on our 24 foot pontoon. We had 17 people on our boat and we're scooting around the lake pretty well using only this trolling motor. It's definitely got power. Worth the money for sure. I'm glad we bought it! We were out almost 5 hours with a couple bathroom breaks and still had a full battery. We ran it between 1-3 speed. Didn't need to go faster than that. This motor is a champ. You won't regret it. We use this on our 24 foot pontoon as the main motor in a lake. Worked great right away. Looks nice, fairly quiet, height and adjustable handle and shaft is great! A couple cons that Newport should address to improve their product... -You can't get the motor head wet so no leaving it out in rain like their competitors. Make it waterproof and you'll be ace. -The speed isn't right..there's really not much difference at all between faster and slower speeds. Something needs tinkered with in your speeds of this motor. -Dont take your boat out in 18mph wind with this trolling motor. We did and had to have someone pull us back with their torqeedo motor. It doesn't like to fight the wind. I think this relates to the speed that just doesn't seem different at different settings. Overall a good motor for the price. If you need a motor at a decent price with higher thrust. This is a good one to gamble on. Just those few quirks to keep in mind when you purchase. ... show more

  • Great for trolling use!
Style: 86lb Thrust
My boat was a 21.5' I/O, and this worked perfectly for trolling for lake trout and salmon speeds!

  • Strong. Could be built tougher.
Style: 86lb Thrust
This pushes my heavy Glassply at trolling speeds just fine. The mount and the set screw fittings to set the angle and the depth are built very light. These fittings are identical to the ones on my 40 lb, Newport. I know that the motor had to be kept light so people can carry it. However, the motor is powerful. It is delicate to lock the motor straight ahead, because the engine overpowers the set screw when the boat rocks. The smaller Newport holds course. This engine will get me to the deer and to my halibut sets, but I have to keep a hand on it to steer while trolling. The whole mounting structure could be a lot stouter. I am worried. ... show more

  • It can push a 3000lb sailboat - but don't expect Lexus quality for a Barbie Power Wheels price.
Style: 86lb Thrust
The short answer: The 86lb thrust model can move 3000lb+ of sailboat and crew up to 4mph for 3hrs without issue, in my personal experience (6 months as of this review). (8 month update: Spent the night on the lake last week and had almost no wind for this 24 hr period. Pushed the boat over 14 miles during this time. ) The highlights: - The motor is as easy, or hard, to install as any other trolling motor: hang it on the mount, clap it down, adjust angle and depth, two bolts to the battery, and a way you go. - It does NOT have a full off switch so if it is connected to the battery, the meter is reading state of charge and thus has a minimal continuous draw. - I originally though the state of charge meter was not working because it always registered 30% with red LEDs. I wear Rx sunglasses and until I came in after dark, I didn't realize that direct sunlight and my polarized lenses were preventing me from seeing the green LEDs of the normal zone. - My motor typically gets a 1.5 hour run going out and coming into the marina typically with a head wind in one of those directions. The control end stays at ambient temps, as do the wires that supply power. - I usually run it on level 1-2 in the marina, 3 outside of the no wake through the inlet, 4 in a headwind, and I save 5 for emergency maneuvers. Its a sailboat - if I wanted speed I'd buy a seadoo. The Limitations: - The control end is a plastic body and the whole unit is made from very simple materials throughout. - The actual motor is heavy (GOOD), but the reset is very light and I know enough about plastics to know that if left sitting out, the controller body will only last a season or two before it cracks. - I expect at the end of the season, I will need to open and clean it (and I'm on fresh water). Recommendations: - If you intend to leave it permanently attached, you should get a thick cover for it when not in use for longevity. - I would also coat it with wax, RainX or some other water proofing/repellent on the control end. Yes, it would be nice if it was watertight and made with better materials, but that would add cost and potentially weight. - For permanently mounted unit on water larger than a lake or slow river, I would suggest a more expensive brand, and frankly a different design. At this price point, if I was on the ocean, I'd have two and if one stopped working or was damaged, swap it out. My battery cost me TWICE what I paid for this motor. Don't expect Lexus quality for a Barbie Power Wheels price. My Use Case and Results (just in case you are trying to fall asleep): I'm on a fresh water lake. I'm using a with a 24v 100Ah battery that just fits in the gas can well of my boat. In a sub 10mph headwind (strongest I've experienced), it can move the boat in and out of the slip and get us out of the channel and onto the main lake (I have yet to try it in stronger winds and my marina is very sheltered. Depending on wind direction I have to travel up to 3 miles out to get under sail or return. Basically every trip I am prepared to travel 10 mile by this motor. Additional back story (aren't you tired of this yet?): I purchased to use with my 23' sailboat. Boat came with a 6hp motor but outboards can be finicky and I wanted a setup that my wife (who has ZERO sailing experience and not much more general boating experience) to be able to easily handle if I fall in, succumb to the heat, the boom dropped on me, etc. Basically, lower unit into the water and turn it on. It's working great for this purpose. I stow the motor after every trip and expect to keep it at home in the off season. ... show more

  • I’m impressed
Style: 86lb Thrust
I got this to put in my 12’ row boat to use on lakes and maybe a shallow river, this is powerful enough to move the boat and about 100 lbs of equipment, 2 batteries, and 3 225 lb full grown men around a lake with no problems at a decent speed, definitely recommended by all my friends who have tried it ... show more

  • Plastic control gears WILL fail.
Style: 86lb Thrust
Update: I took the broken handle section apart. There was a broken plastic piece that apparently held it all together. There was also a loose ball bearing and a spring. No idea where they went. After an hour of trial and error I decided to drill a new hole and secure the handle with a bolt. No (poorly designed) telescopic function now, but it works again! -2 stars for engineering, -1 for broken pieces, -1 for my frustration and time. Still 1 star, but I can fish again. Got the 86 pound version for extra power but with portability on my inflatable dinghy. It did a good job for several fishing trips out. Good for tooling on a lake every now and then, but seas are too rough for it. Most importantly, for some reason the gears controlling the speed gave out on the handle. I can barely get it going now, and I have a worse time stopping it. That's dangerous. Ridiculous that they used such cheap plastic on such an important part of the motor! I fear it's basically unusable in its current state. And nothing happened except manufacturing failure. Also, it's a 24-volt system and requires two batteries. That's a lot to lug around if the goal is kayak-style-launch portability. Failed controls means wasted money. ... show more
