Minn Kota Ulterra 2 80 lb Trolling Motor – 60" Shaft, Dual Spectrum CHIRP, Wireless Remote – 1358978

The Minn Kota Ulterra 2 80 lb Trolling Motor combines automatic stow and deploy, electronic Power Trim, advanced GPS navigation, and built-in Humminbird Dual Spectrum CHIRP sonar in a powerful freshwater bow-mount trolling motor. Featuring a 60" composite shaft, wireless remote, and programmable electric foot pedal, the Ulterra 2 delivers precise boat control while eliminating the need to manually deploy, retrieve, or adjust trolling motor depth.

Powered by a 24V brushed motor delivering 80 lbs of thrust, the Ulterra 2 features Minn Kota's Digital Maximizer technology for efficient variable-speed operation and extended battery runtime.

The 60" shaft provides additional reach for boats with higher bow mounting positions and helps keep the propeller submerged when fishing in rougher water. Combined with improved Spot-Lock, Drift Mode, One-Boat Network compatibility, and automatic motor operation, the Ulterra 2 offers a convenient and capable trolling motor system for serious freshwater anglers.

Specifications

Automatic Stow & Deploy

One of the biggest advantages of the Minn Kota Ulterra 2 is its fully automatic stow and deploy system.

Instead of manually lifting and lowering the trolling motor, anglers can deploy or retrieve the Ulterra at the push of a button.

Supported control options include:

• Wireless remote

• Programmable electric foot pedal

• Minn Kota Fishing App

• Compatible connected Minn Kota or Humminbird fish finders

Automatic stow and deploy makes transitioning between running the boat and fishing more convenient, especially when operating from the console or when reaching the bow-mounted motor is difficult.

Electronic Power Trim

The Ulterra 2 features electronic Power Trim, allowing anglers to adjust trolling motor depth without manually moving the shaft.

Using the wireless remote, foot pedal, Minn Kota Fishing App, or supported connected electronics, the motor can be raised or lowered to maintain proper propeller depth.

This is especially useful when fishing in changing water conditions, shallow water, or situations where bow height changes with waves and boat movement.

Power Trim also makes it easier to adjust motor depth when transitioning between fishing techniques.

Built-In Humminbird Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar

The Ulterra 2 features an integrated Humminbird Dual Spectrum CHIRP transducer, providing traditional 2D sonar without requiring an externally mounted transducer on the trolling motor.

When connected to a compatible Humminbird fish finder, the built-in sonar provides:

• Dual Spectrum CHIRP: Detailed sonar returns for fish detection, bottom tracking, and underwater structure.

• Target Separation: Helps distinguish individual fish and targets close to the bottom.

• Concealed Transducer Wiring: Internal cable routing helps protect sonar wiring and maintain a clean trolling motor installation.

The integrated transducer keeps external wiring to a minimum while providing a convenient sonar source at the bow.

A compatible Humminbird fish finder and the appropriate sonar connection are required to use the built-in transducer.

Important: This model includes Dual Spectrum CHIRP 2D sonar only. It does not include built-in MEGA Side Imaging or MEGA Down Imaging.

Electric Steering with Wireless Remote and Foot Pedal

The Minn Kota Ulterra 2 uses electric steering with Power Steering for responsive boat control.

The wireless remote provides access to steering, speed control, Spot-Lock, AutoPilot, automatic stow/deploy, Power Trim, and other supported GPS navigation functions.

The programmable heel-toe electric foot pedal allows hands-free steering and speed adjustments while also providing control over stowing, deployment, and motor trim.

A user-programmable button allows quick access to supported functions such as marking waypoints, engaging AutoPilot, or controlling compatible shallow-water anchors.

The foot pedal includes an 18-foot cord for flexible installation at the bow.

Advanced GPS Boat Control

The Ulterra 2 features Minn Kota's advanced GPS trolling system for accurate positioning and automated navigation.

Improved Spot-Lock automatically maintains your boat's position over a selected fishing location, reducing the need for constant steering corrections.

Drift Mode combines GPS speed and course control to maintain a consistent drift path, even when wind and current change.

AutoPilot maintains a selected heading while the trolling motor makes steering adjustments.

Draw and Navigate allows anglers to create routes on compatible connected electronics and have the trolling motor follow the selected course.

Follow Mode works with compatible Humminbird mapping and electronics to follow supported depth contours and weed lines.

Intelligent Depth Control works with compatible connected electronics and supported shallow-water anchors to detect changing depths, provide alerts, and activate supported protective functions.

Certain advanced navigation features require compatible electronics, mapping, or additional connected equipment.

Digital Maximizer Battery Efficiency

The Ulterra 2 features Minn Kota's Digital Maximizer technology, providing variable-speed control to help conserve battery power.

Instead of operating at fixed speed settings, the motor allows anglers to make precise speed adjustments based on fishing conditions.

An integrated battery meter provides battery status information to help manage available power.

One-Boat Network Integration

The Ulterra 2 integrates with compatible Humminbird fish finders and supported Minn Kota equipment through the One-Boat Network.

Depending on the connected system, anglers can access supported trolling motor controls, GPS navigation features, and coordinated operation with compatible shallow-water anchors.

Additional networking accessories or compatible electronics may be required.
