Fortrex Freshwater Bow Mount: Power and Precision on the Water
Dominate the Waters with Fortrex™
Built to outperform and outlast, the Fortrex™ Freshwater Bow Mount is the ultimate tool for serious anglers. Its exposed, solid extruded aluminum arm is a bold statement, showcasing the toughest, most reliable mount we've ever created. With fewer moving parts and tighter tolerances, Fortrex delivers unmatched strength and silence. Ready to tackle any challenge, it’s engineered to elevate your fishing experience to the next level.
Innovative Mono-Arm Design
Simplicity meets revolution with Fortrex's Mono-Arm Design. The extruded, anodized aluminum structural beam operates without metal-to-metal contact, reducing torsion by 75%. A single hinge point and rear pivot bearing, with 20% more surface area, minimize wear, extend motor life, and ensure whisper-quiet operation.
Counter-Tension Stabilizer (CTS) for Enhanced Stability
Experience rock-solid stability with CTS. This advanced feature uses an integrated spring to maintain constant pressure, eliminating motor play and steering torque. Whether stowed or deployed, the Fortrex remains steadfast, providing you with smooth, silent navigation.
Effortless Operation with Lift-Assist
Deploy and stow your motor with ease, thanks to Fortrex's Lift-Assist design. A stainless steel, nitrogen-charged gas spring cuts the effort in half, making it as effortless as opening your SUV tailgate. Get in and out of the water swiftly, without breaking a sweat.
Removable Bowguard 360° for Quick Adjustments
Adjusting or removing the motor is now quicker and easier with the Removable Bowguard 360°™. A single cap screw detaches the motor, while the dual bearing system ensures quiet, smooth operation and improved breakaways from any angle.
Clear Direction with Illuminated Indicator
Stay on course with confidence. The illuminated directional indicator ensures you always know your heading, even in low-light conditions, for precise navigation.
Responsive Foot Pedal for Total Control
Stay connected to the water with the ultra-responsive foot pedal. Its spacious design offers more room for your foot and precise speed control, allowing you to fine-tune your trolling experience effortlessly.
Maximized Power with Digital Maximizer™
Go further, stay longer. The Digital Maximizer™ optimizes power usage, extending battery life and reducing heat. Spend up to five times longer on the water with a single charge.
Weedless Wedge 2 Prop: Tackle the Thickest Vegetation
Cut through dense weeds without draining your battery. The Weedless Wedge™ 2 Prop features swept-back, flared blades that push through vegetation effortlessly, delivering reliable performance in even the toughest conditions.
Indestructible Composite Shaft – Lifetime Guarantee
Stronger than steel, the composite shaft is built to flex on impact, resisting breakage, kinks, and corrosion. We back it with a lifetime guarantee, ensuring it stands up to the rigors of your fishing adventures.
Cool, Quiet Power for Undisturbed Fishing
Stay stealthy with Minn Kota's cool, quiet power. Our oversized windings and commutators dissipate heat, extending motor life and battery power, while the unique bearing system reduces friction, keeping you quiet on the water.
Advanced Sonar with Universal Sonar 2
Enjoy crystal-clear sonar performance with Universal Sonar 2. The integrated transducer is concealed for interference-free operation, providing water temperature sensing and dual beam technology for greater bottom detail. Compatible with most major fishfinders, it’s the perfect companion for serious anglers.
