Mk fortrex trolling motor
What is the best in trolling motors? I have a 19 ft champion. Seem to hear good things about the fortrex. I have a noisy motor guide right now.

To a question like this, you'll get as many answers as people answering. Try something a little less general. Do some research, narrow it down to two or three and then ask for comparisons.

Welcome to the forum!
The "best" trolling motor-Motorguide or Minnkota-is like Ford or Chevy. Some swear by them, some swear at them. I've always used Motorguide, but both make good trollers. For a 19 footer I would not go less than a 24 volt/ 70+ pounds of thrust. I just bought a new MG that is 24V 82 lbs of thrust and I run a 17-6 Nitro. I'm not familiar with the motor you are asking about so I can't give you an opinion one way or the other.
