AQUOS Haswing Black Cayman 24V 80lbs 54inch Bow Mount Electric Trolling Motor Lightweight, Variable Speed, with Foot Control/Quick Release Bracket for Bass Fishing Boats Freshwater and Saltwater Use

The install was very easy and the product has been so far just as expected. The quick release plate that can be added to the unit does need to be thicker when used on a pontoon boat with carpeting. The power cord is very long which was great for my application as it was able to reach the area where the batteries are. The wireless remote is great so far..

Item seemed like it was made of quality materials. It was packaged well. Install was fairly easy with materials supplied. It is nice that I can lock it to my boat with the supplied mount and remove it easily from my boat when not in use; the mount was included in the package. It did not come with a fuse or circuit breaker. I ended up purchasing a power disconnect so that I can remove the motor from the boat when not in use without having to pull the cables from the batteries and remove all the tie straps that I used to fasten the cables to the boat. I also bought a circuit breaker for over current protection; would have been nice if they had indicate the rated amperage and supplied a breaker of fuse for circuit protection. The supplied power cables were not long enough to reach the batteries where I have them in the boat versus the bow mount. Also, the only instructions included in the package were the ones that told me how to install the mount; its a good thing I am a mechanic who knows and understands principles of electricity and mechanics/physics. The foot control works well and is very large - no problems with being able to hold your foot in place at the heel and make the buttons work - will need plenty of deck space to place the foot control. I had a little trouble with it not doing what I wanted it to on an occasion or two but it eventually reacted and made the change that I wanted after 3 or 4 seconds. I have not tried the blue tooth remote yet. 80 pounds of thrust might be a little small for my 27 foot boat but it does move it; should be plenty for a smaller boat. If they would have made a larger motor, I would have bought one. For the price of it, an equivalent that I was considering was more than double the price and one with spot lock GPS would have been even more. I hope the durability holds up well and the motor goes for several years. If it does, then it is well worth considering to buy another one just like it rather than going for one of the other brands I was considering.

First off I really like this trolling motor for cost, thrust and many good features but the bad stuff makes me want to jerk off my boat.First: the release handles are not in sync, supposedly you should be able to step or push either side and it supposed to release well it doesn’t only the left handle fully releases the motor so it will be lowered in the water.Secondly: and this is the most aggravating part; while lifting it out of the water it will freeze up. You can’t go up or down or even twist it to so it will be suspended halfway and I have to tie it off for I don’t want it to fall back down while driving home. In order for me to get it back into the holding cradle I have to tug, twist repeatedly in order to work it loose and still don’t know what I did to get it loose. I have sprayed lubricant (Houdini) (not w-d 40). It helps some. But still freezes up!And if anyone has got suggestions on how to remedy the bad and make me love this trolling motor again please respond.

We have this motor on a 20 foot pontoon in a 37 acre lake. It does an amazing job. We have had 12 adults with coolers and it did perfect. We have hit a stump and slightly bend the shaft. We used a tractor and the hitch of a f150 to straighten it back out. We nearly lifted the truck off the ground. It works great again. It took the weight of the boat and 10 people at full speed to slightly bend the shaft, with a direct hit of a stump. Other motors would have shattered!

Works awesome tons of power

This motor trolls my 20ft Pontoon all over the Canal. I'm impressed.

I didn’t have a lot of money so went with this over a Minn Kota. Had 5 months, remote stopped working after the first month but didn’t really need that. Was fishing 2 months ago and the motor just starts speeding up, turning, slowing down, just going haywire. Thought it may be the foot pedal so immediately disconnected it but the motor just kept going crazy so I had to disconnect the power.UPDATE: After my review the AQUOS customer service contacted me about my issues with the motor. They heard my concerns and did EVERYTHING in their powers to make the situation right. I have dealt with a ton of companies and I may have a problem with the motor but I have never had a better customer service experience then dealing with them. Professional, Courteous, and listened to my problem then fixed it with follow through. Thank you AQUOS for everything and because I was a salesman for 20 years I know that the product is only half the battle, the service after the sale is what really matters.

This motor is strong and efficient. It did smoke a circuit board but customer service was on it. Sent me a new circuit board, free of charge. I replaced it and everything is good! It is a little troublesome with a trolling motor mounted transducer so I'll have to figure something else out, and the foot control is a little cumbersome, but I use the wireless remote anyway, so other than that, it's a good motor for getting around the lake all day!
