Electric trolling motor with a power output of 600 W and 55 lbs of thrust. The motor weighs 13 kg and operates at 12V (50A maximum). A conventional AGM or lithium battery with 50 or 100 Ah is easily sufficient – of course, depending on the desired running time and range. The motor is controlled using the Micro Remote (MR) remote control.

The integrated Dual Spectrum Chirp (DSC) sonar provides accurate fish and structure displays on your Humminbird fishfinder.

Scope of delivery of Minn Kota PowerDrive 55 MR DSC

Scope of delivery: E-motor, Power Propeller, Micro Remote (MR) remote control, DSC sonar transducer, manual. A foot pedal is not included, but can easily be retrofitted.


The PowerDrive 55 comes with a high-quality Micro Remote (MR) wireless remote control that connects to the PowerDrive. This also includes top features such as Spot-Lock GPS anchor, AutoPilot, and precise control via smartphone (Minn Kota App).


A DSC sonar transducer is already integrated into the motor shaft. The sonar transducer provides clear sonar images and accurate water temperature. Since the transducer is already included in the motor, you have no unnecessary cables in the boat. The heading sensor is not included. However, this can be retrofitted, making your GPS anchor even more precise.

Minn Kota PowerDrive: safe handling

  • Folding stock to avoid ground contact

  • no leakage, no smell of gasoline

  • Digital battery display (for AGM - for LiFePO4 we recommend a battery with its own display or Bluetooth)

  • With the push of a button on the remote control, the boat can be steered from any position on the boat. You don't have to go to the front or back to the motor in order to steer. The remote control alone is already a major advantage of bow motors.

  • High thrust: easily suitable for boats up to 800 kg

Minn Kota PowerDrive: safe handling

Comfortable operation of the PowerDrive 55 MR DSC

  • Speed: Stepless control (also via the foot pedal)

  • Easy installation at the bow

  • The motor, thanks to the Weedless Wedge II propeller, can get through dense vegetation and is well protected even against thick weeds.

  • Up to 16 different routes, each 3.2 km long, can be saved and driven automatically.

  • Optionally, you can also control the PowerDrive via touchscreen on your phone or a tablet. The Minn Kota App helps with this.

  • Adjustable immersion depth

  • Autopilot and Stop-Lock GPS anchor provide maximum comfort while fishing. Your hands are free for the important things.

  • light weight of only 13 kg

PowerDrive 55 - technical features

  • The motors occasionally require the replacement of carbon brushes. However, experience shows that this is very rarely necessary.

  • Low power consumption and long range thanks to the digital Maximizer function

  • Very quiet, virtually silent (perfect for anglers)

  • The shatterproof motor shaft absorbs even the strongest impact without breaking.

  • The motor can be tilted up in just a few steps in case of risk of grounding

PowerDrive 55 - technical features

Correct shaft length for bow motors

137 cm shaft length is suitable for normally high gunwales. Measure the distance from the top edge of the bow to the waterline and add 50 cm. So if your distance is, for example, 80 cm (+50 cm), you are in the perfect range.

Batteries for the Minn Kota PowerDrive 55 MR DSC

We mainly recommend the lithium batteries from Ultimatron or Forster Batteries. Either the 12 V 100 Ah version from Ultimatron with Bluetooth and app, or the Ecowatt model with display. From Forster Batteries, we usually use the 12 V 50 Ah model with Bluetooth + app. The lightweight Rebelcell battery cases are also excellent.


Basically, AGM batteries are also compatible with the Minn Kota PowerDrive 55 MR DSC. AGM batteries are significantly heavier and not as easy to handle. However, the battery status can be displayed directly on the bow motor. This does not work with lithium batteries due to the voltage.
