Savage Gear Thruster 12V 55LBS – Powerful Electric Trolling Motor for Larger Boats
The Thruster 12V 55LBS is a quiet, powerful, and reliable electric trolling motor designed for anglers who need more thrust and control on larger boats. Built for freshwater use, this motor is ideal for Irish lakes, larger inland waters, and slow-moving rivers where dependable propulsion and precise handling are essential.
With a maximum pulling force of 55 lbs, the Thruster 55LBS offers significantly increased power compared to smaller models, allowing it to comfortably propel boats up to 5.4 metres (18 ft). Despite its strength, the motor remains extremely quiet, helping anglers maintain stealth when fishing pressured waters.
The impact-resistant fiberglass shaft and aluminium quick-angle mounting bracket ensure durability and easy adjustment, while the 3-blade weedless propeller provides efficient thrust even in areas with vegetation. A telescopic handle allows comfortable operation, and five forward plus two reverse speeds give precise control in changing conditions.
An integrated LCD display provides clear, at-a-glance information while on the water. Backed by Savage Gear’s reputation for quality, the Thruster 55LBS comes with a two-year warranty and full spare parts availability.
