Simrad RECON Saltwater 72” 

SKU: 000-16159-001

Determined to make a certain catch? Let nothing hold you back. Not the swells. Not the wind. Certainly not the gear you run. The RECON™ trolling motor gives you the strength and power to battle the elements, with a robust shaft and best-in-class thrust. Uncompromising precision comes from the revolutionary FreeSteer™ remote. And highly-accurate GPS means RECON™ gets you closer to your target, and keeps you there.

Control like nothing else

 

The FreeSteer™ joystick remote is truly unique. Fine-tuned steering adjustments let you travel with precision in almost any direction. Get near-instant response with best-in-class steering speeds. And, in an industry-first, move anchor positions freely by executing jogs with a simple press and hold of the joystick.

Move-Anywhere.jpg

Move anywhere onboard

Designed to be carried anywhere on board, the FreeSteer™ remote is small and lightweight. The remote even features a transreflective LCD color display and configurable buttons so you don’t have to rely on your chartplotter – instead making adjustments from anywhere onboard.

Quiet-Operation-RECON.jpg

Quiet operation

24V/36V brushless motors provide all the power you need with none of the noise. RECON moves your vessel through the water quietly, getting right on top of your target without spooking them.

Streamlined installation

RECON is designed with simplicity in mind. The mounts fit legacy brushed motor footprints, letting you upgrade to RECON from a wide variety of existing trolling motors without having to drill any new holes. A simple riveted latch system means it’s easy to deploy and stow once onboard.

Low-Maintenence.jpg

Low maintenance

RECON’s tough design means you can fish anywhere, but it also means your trolling motor will last longer, with less maintenance. Our proprietary corrosion-resistant coating is built for harsh environments and heavy salt. Even RECON’s all-in-one cable boasts a UV-resistant coating.

Yours For Life

RECON is built to be trusted. That’s why we’re including a lifetime shaft warranty, and three years’ cover for the motor.
