What Customers Say

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Minn Kota Traxxis family designed for?

Traxxis is designed for freshwater transom-mount positioning and standard trolling with hand/tiller control. Choose the exact configuration according to loaded boat weight, operating conditions, voltage and transom measurement.

Is Minn Kota Traxxis for freshwater or saltwater?

Traxxis is a freshwater trolling-motor family. For saltwater or brackish-water operation, begin with a matching Minn Kota Riptide saltwater collection rather than assuming a freshwater Traxxis is suitable.

Where does Traxxis mount, and how is it controlled?

Traxxis mounts on the transom and uses hand/tiller steering. Current verified models include a tiller that tilts up to 45 degrees and extends up to six inches, but confirm the exact MPN before ordering.

Should I choose 55 lb or 80 lb Traxxis thrust?

Start with your boat’s fully loaded weight and operating conditions. Minn Kota recommends at least two pounds of thrust per 100 pounds as a general baseline, while wind, current and hull profile may justify additional thrust.

What voltage does a Minn Kota Traxxis require?

The verified 55 lb / 42-inch model 1368716M requires 12V, while the verified 80 lb / 42-inch model 1368730M requires 24V. Follow the exact model’s battery, wiring and breaker instructions.

How do I know whether the 42-inch Traxxis shaft fits my boat?

Measure from the top of the transom mounting surface to the waterline with the boat normally loaded. Minn Kota’s guide maps a 16–22-inch transom measurement to a 42-inch shaft and recommends keeping the propeller tip sufficiently submerged.

Does Minn Kota Traxxis include GPS or Spot-Lock?

No GPS or Spot-Lock capability is listed for the current verified Traxxis configurations. Traxxis uses hand/tiller steering with variable-speed control, so choose a supported GPS-equipped family if electronic anchoring is required.

Does Traxxis include built-in sonar, and what equipment comes with it?

No built-in sonar is listed on the verified Traxxis configurations. Minn Kota lists a Power Prop, prop pin, nut and washer, while Traxxis also provides One-Hand Stow, a battery meter and a Quick-Cam Depth Adjuster. Confirm package contents on the exact PDP.

What should I verify before ordering a Traxxis motor?

Verify freshwater use, transom mounting space, fully loaded boat weight, thrust, shaft measurement, system voltage, wiring and the exact manufacturer part number. Also confirm whether 1368716 is valid legacy inventory or a duplicate of 1368716M.
