## Description

desertcart.com : Newport NV-Series 36lb Thrust Saltwater Transom Mounted Electric Trolling Motor with LED Battery Indicator & 30" Shaft : Sports & Outdoors

Review: 86LB thrust (2025 update long story short I love this motor!) - UPDATED PICTURES AND REVIEW AFTER 100 fishing trips. 3/24/2025. I will leave my original review but add too it. I still like the motor. Very fast(3.5mph by itself). It absolutely still serves its purpose. Never any issues with 500+ hrs between my dad and I. Only issues are -battery indicator on top is worthless. THE FIX- Just make sure your battery’s are charged and do not risk it(recommend Noco onboard charger 10x3). -there is no creeping going up the bank, even first gear is 2+ mph and I’m being picky but a little loud. THE FIX- I have enjoyed using this motor to help get us to the other side of lake first thing in morning then use front motor to creep up banks. I don’t mean to exaggerate the noise, not bad but noticeable. -Vibration. It’s not terrible but the handle definitely wobbles/vibrates at top speed but it is worth it for extra speed vs 55/62lb options. I can only get 2.5mph out of the front 55lb thrust minkota edge($100 on marketplace).THE FIX- I have not attempted to play with mitigating the vibration. Also not a big deal just being transparent with issues that are frustrating (even if only make you mad a little lol) Next upgrade for me is new lithium batteries to drop some weight. Still rocking 3 27 size 100ah+ ($100 each) from Walmart. 2 for rear motor. 1 for front motor and electronics. It’s been GREAT! This setup got my and pops fishing on my small budget. Grateful for that. Lots of fish caught and even more memories made. You all can imagine your typical 35yr old son and 70year old dad fishing. LOL Hope this helps. Buy the motor. I would again. I’ll be looking at the nt300 down the road for a jon boat build! 6/1/2024 Disclaimer!!!!!! I have only used the Newport motor once so I can’t give feedback on long term yet but I’ll update back over time if things change. I’m no expert at all but I have had maybe 10 trolling motors over the years and can compare speed-vibration-battery life-ergonomics-etc from them to it. Overall yes I am happy with it and will NOT be returning it. It’s very nice with only one major flaw. First gear is way too aggressive. This new newport 86lb is faster in first gear than my 40lb at full power. Creeping ultra quietly down the bank is not easy anymore. I WANT TO GIVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FIRST. Only one issue so far, first gear is super aggressive. It’s not bad enough for me to return, just something to note. First gear, the slowest option is 2.5mph. For example my 40lb first gear is maybe little over half of a mph. So an immediate 2.5mph is very jerky, so if you are moving on small ponds just get the 62lb that runs 12v. If you are fishing bigger reservoirs or state parks, etc get this 86lb. I covered so much more water today now that I’m moving double the speed. I wish it was possible to have a slower first gear to creep from spot to spot. It’s much more aggressive than I would like first gear to be. IF the guy upfront is standing you better let him know before you turn the motor on. It’s funny with my buddy in his 30s, but my dad in his 70s is going to have a balance problem if he is standing LOL. Creeping ultra quietly down the bank is not possible. Reverse is perfect! Very powerful too. With this new 86lb I’m now able to get over 4mph while using both motors even with weight of 3 big batteries and 2 180-200lb guys and our rods, the front motor and battery/etc. The motor seems very nice quality, reminds me of minn kota. I would rank this quality higher feel than my motorguides (r3 ) but lower than min kotas. The lever clicks are very solid, like I like my adjustments on an optic. I want to hear and feel the change. I ran it all day today and the battery light only went down 3 bar! Nothing got hot either. INCLUDES THE CABLE YOU NEED TO RIN 24v! I took a picture of wiring and batteries to help others get setup. Super simple To run the 24v needed. I picked up 2 deep cycle marine batteries (pictured) at Walmart for $100 each. They are both 100+ah batteries. This 86lb came with the cable to run from one batteries positive, to the other batteries negative. Then you hook the motor up wires to the open positive and negative posts. Battery voltage indicator is such a nice feature. I will reply back to tell you how accurate it is. UPDATE NOT ACCURATE! Vibration seemed normal. Nothing to crazy. I was able to turn on full speed and it stayed straight with my hand even off it. Big bonus for that when you need to cover a lot of water it’s nice to take your hand off for a second. This Newport 86lb motor seems to only weigh slightly more than a normal 55lb troller. Also a win. Easy to take on and off boat if you need to.
Review: Works as advertised. Simple, sturdy design. No complaints. - I got this for puttering around lakes on an inflatable boat. It does this perfectly. Screws right onto your transom. Turn to steer, twist for throttle, all in near-silence. Like all trolling motors regardless of power, speed will not exceed 5mph. This is plenty fast for puttering around lakes. I’ve heard about propeller upgrades that might get you another 1mph, but haven’t tried that myself. If you want to go faster, you’ll need to spend thousands more for either an electric outboard that might go 2mph faster, or a gas outboard that will go much faster but be loud, smelly, and illegal on many lakes.

## Features

- EFFICIENT POWER: 36lb Thrust - this 12v electric trolling motor provides excellent power and efficiency for any boater. The high quality build allows the motor to run all day long without overheating, or making noise to spook fish.
- FEATURES: This motor features a 30 inch shaft, a 5 LED battery meter, a 6 inch telescoping tiller handle, and 2 blade propeller. The mount angle, height, and direction can all be adjusted and locked into place when needed.
- SPEED: This motor has 8 speeds, 5 forward and 3 reverse. The motor is designed for trolling, so the top speed of this motor is about 3mph, but depends on your boat shape, weight, water, wind, and other factors. Our 2 Blade Propeller performs well in weeds and grassy conditions.
- BATTERY: The NV 36lb motor requires one (1) 12V Lead-Acid Deep Cycle or Lithium Deep Cycle battery (battery not included), 50ah recommended. The motor includes a 40amp circuit breaker which is recommended at all times to protect from battery voltage surges. Max Amp Draw: 29A
- QUALITY & RELIABILITY: All Newport motors are made to high quality stainless steel, magnesium, and zinc hardware to withstand fresh water and salt water environments. We stand behind every product we make with industry leading customer service and a 2 year warranty.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how many amps is this motor in high speed?**
A: Hi,
The 36lb NV Series motor draws 29 Amps at top speed. Hopefully this helps! If you have more questions or need additional help, please visit newportvessels.com or give us a call at (866) 721-0002! Our hours are M-F, 8:30am-4:30pm Pacific Time.
Best,
-NV Team

**Q: Is 30 inches a good shaft length for a transom on a 14 foot aluminum boat?**
A: The answer to your question depends on several factors including the height of your transom and the draft of your boat.  Measure the draft from the line on the hull and the height of the transom.  Most motors work best at 5"-10" below the water's surface.  You can determine where your prop would be reasonably well with the above measurements and decide whether a 30" shaft is sufficient.  It probably is.  If you intend to take the boat in a large body of water, you'd be better off with a higher-thrust motor.  By the way, so far as I can tell (my NV-36 is mounted on a kayak and the lakes are still frozen), this seems to be quite a good product and I had a very good experience with the seller.  (I also have a Min-kota).  Joseph Ray

**Q: Can the mounting bracket be adjusted to position it where you want to on the shaft?  Hard to tell by the picture.**
A: Hi,
The transom bracket is secured to a mounting position and then the shaft has the ability to be adjusted. There is a height adjustment collar located just above the transom bracket that allows you to position the height of the motor to your application. There is also a directional lock that allows you freely rotate the motor 180 degrees when loose or to lock it in a direction when fully tightened. For additional questions regarding this topic or another, feel free to give us a call at (866) 721-0002! Our hours are Mon-Fri, 8:30am-4:30pm Pacific Standard Time.
Best,
-NV Team

**Q: I ordered this on September 4 and it hasn't shipped yet. How soon will it be here?**
A: Definitely in one hour an 10 minutes...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greater Value than Expected
*by G***B on June 25, 2025*

I recently purchased a piece of property on a shallow lake. It is a very quiet community, so I thought an electric trolling motor would be appropriate for just cruising along the lake. I read several reviews done by others on this Newport product, and watched videos that were posted showing the motor in action. I have to say that I am beyond impressed with what I purchased. I chose the 62 lb thrust motor since it can be used on various size boats. I have a 12' StarCraft rowboat that is an older and well-constructed boat. That means it has some weight to it. I was able to cruise along through the weedy places with no trouble at all. A very clever design feature is the adjustable collar that allow the motor to be raised or lowered depending upon the depth from the floor to the propeller. Once I was in open water, I selected the highest speed and was amazed at how very well it moved me along. It will be put to a full test next week when my wife and 3 others will be using the boat. The weight of the motor is great in that it is light enough for my wife to carry it without hurting her shoulder. This was another selling point. It installs in seconds which mean no heavy lifting for a long period of time.. I have only one major concern that I experienced that could easily be remedied with a design modification. The forward and reverse motion is controlled by a twist of the handle. If you install the motor and accidentally have the motor in any of the power settings before you hook up the battery, the motor will turn and you could get injured. Yes, common sense would demand that the battery no be hooked up until the motor is in the water, but the potential for injury does exist. Perhaps they can incorporate a safety switch that interrupts the power going to the motor. I purchased a deep cycle lithium battery to power the motor. I ran for about a couple of miles at full speed and measured the voltage at the battery after I finished the run. The power loss was only a .01 drop from the 12.8 volts. There is a built in battery level series of LED's that tell you at a glance how much power you have left. This is a testimony to not only the quality of the battery, but also to the low amp draw of the motor. It is very efficient. It is very well made and I expect many years of use out of this unit. There are replacement parts available which is encouraging. Final word, for the price you will not find a better motor that has all the features of those that are priced much, much higher. I expect Newport to be around a while.
