Very easy to use

Waited a while to give this review I’ve used it two seasons now and I have not used it a lot. The hard part is finding the right depth to where you don’t get a bad vibration but other than that, it is done its job. Use it to troll my 12 foot aluminum boat when I’m not using my gas one.

Good trolling motor for the price

I purchased this trolling motor for a week long fishing trip in Canada. We went through a fly-in operator that only has 14' aluminum jon boats on their lake. The boats are equipped with 9.9 HP outboards, but trolling motors are a nice addition to be able to fish more comfortably. I opted for the larger 55 lb. thrust to be able to move the boat quickly. Canadian winds can be no joke and having more power gets you out of trouble in a hurry.The unit is heavy. With a 55 lb. thrust motor, I'm assuming the head is loaded with copper anodes. It is very powerful though. I was impressed at how fast it would push the little boats. Even when loaded with two adults and our gear, this motor in high gear would put out a wake. As others have mentioned, the jump from speed 4 to speed 5 is extremely large. I expected maybe a more gradual increase. If you aren't paying attention and crank it to 5, you could knock someone off their feet.The only drawbacks for me were the noise. It has a lot of vibration and noise. The handle assembly in the plastic head vibrates a lot. And the motor itself is pretty noisy. To be fair, that seems to be more and more common in transom mounted trolling motors these days. I think the larger companies like Minn Kota and MotorGuide make their money off expensive "smart" trolling motors and these transom mounted ones have become cheaply made because of that.Overall this is a good unit for the price point. It has plenty of power to move you around quickly. If you aren't fishing, this is a great buy. It would be great for moving a small tender around. If you are using it for fishing, be aware it's a little noisy.

WHAT A GREAT TROLLING MOTOR

This has got to be the most amazing trolling motor I have ever own.... before finding this i have use some well know brands that were junk out of the box ! I was ready to go back to using a boat paddle ... I can't say enough good things about this trolling motor we ran it all day on a 25 acre pond with some 8 to 10 mph wind on and off most of the day and got into a couple of moss beds and it ripped right through them.. I'm talking about a 16' Jon boat with two big men one ice chest six rod and reels two tackle boxes two batteries one for fish finder and one for the trolling motor and safety equipment .... going by the led meter we only used a fourth of the battery... I told my wife that I had order it after I had put it on the boat and she wasn't as happy as I was ... Its easy to ask for forgiveness than asking for permission .... A bad day on the lake is better than a great day at work! Buy one you want be disappointed!

Powerful trolling motor

I put this on the front of my 14ft jon boat loaded with gear. This thing lasts a long time on a 100AH Lipo.And it's powerful, pulls my boat against strong current like it's nothing.

Excellent customer service & backing their product!

Had an issue with a clicking sound when in the reverse gears and some vibration/shaking when it higher gears in forward, which I would assume was an unbalanced propeller problem.Either way, they reviewed my warranty claim and sent me a new replacement unit, which is more than I could've asked for an am greatly appreciative for!!5 out of 5 stars for the exceptional customer service and standing behind their product! Would definitely buy again

Piece of crap. Don’t buy.

I wish I’d of used and opened this before the return period expired. I had a 36 pound minkota before this. Never had issues with battery life or running it wide open. This Newport motor is terrible. Rattles because of all the plastic it’s made with. Has no where near the power of a minn lots of equal power. And for the first time ever in my river run( it’s the same every trip) my battery died. Thing drains it looking for more power which it obviously doesn’t have. I’m using a blue top optima marine battery. No reason a few hours trolling should kill this. Super waste of money guys.EDIT: 9-1-2022had this thing less than a year.........what a joke still. the prop nut has come loose twice, so much so that the prop wouldnt spin with the resistance of the water. both times this happend while i was on the river.....and yea it has 5 speed settings................which is actually 2 settings.....setting 4 will give me a creep. the other settings all go wide open. im in the process of contacting this joke of a company to see if theyll give me some credit to but another brand or something......hell, id pay to send them this thing back for my money back....STILL JUNK DO NOT BUY
