RECON debuts the FreeSteer™ joystick remote control, revolutionizing the way you control your motor, with effortless 360° control from anywhere onboard. Make quick adjustments on-the-fly with a revolutionary 8-way directional anchor jog. Anglers can now move anchor positions freely, in almost any direction, without re-anchoring the boat.

Best-in-class Steering Speeds

Best-in-class steering speeds and 1-degree adjustments let you choose your spot with total precision. And once you’ve found your spot, you can keep it with RECON’s highly-accurate GPS, capable of holding a tight 3ft zone – so you’ll never lose your target, sitting close on fish while you make your catch.

Empowering Integration

Our first trolling motor completes the Simrad^® suite, delivering a seamless user experience that’s premium at every point. Control RECON directly from your MFD using our custom trolling motor interface. Or control it from anywhere onboard using the FreeSteer™ remote, which features an LCD display. The joystick remote also features configurable buttons that can be linked to ActiveTarget^®, Power-Pole^®, navigational functions, and more.

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.

Frequently asked questions

How do I determine the right size shaft for my boat?

Measure the distance from the water line to the top of your bow, using the point at which your motor will be mounted. Add 20 inches to this measurement. The result is the minimum recommended shaft length for your boat.

The maximum height the boat can sit out of the water for the 54" shaft is 34 inches.
The maximum height the boat can sit out of the water for the 60" shaft is 40 inches.
The maximum height the boat can sit out of the water for the 72" shaft is 52 inches.

How is the RECON trolling motor deployed?

RECON is deployed and stowed manually via a riveted latch system designed for smooth operation and long-term durability.

Can I use the trolling motor in shallow water?

Yes, RECON is designed to take you wherever the fish are.

What additional accessories or features are compatible with the RECON trolling motor?

Those seeking additional control at the bow can integrate the Lowrance wireless foot pedal. Despite its branding, the product works seamlessly with Simrad RECON. Please note the Lowrance nosecone is NOT compatible with the Simrad trolling motor.
