MotorGuide Xi3-55SW - Bow Mount Trolling Motor - Wireless Control - 55lb-54"-12V

The MotorGuide Xi3-55SW is a 55-pound-thrust bow mount trolling motor designed for serious anglers who demand wireless control without compromise. Built as a 12-volt system with a 54-inch shaft, this trolling motor comes equipped with integrated wireless remote capability straight from the factory—eliminating the need for expensive aftermarket upgrades. Whether you're working shallow flats or navigating tight coves, the Xi3-55SW delivers the precision steering and quiet operation that separates productive days on the water from wasted trips.

The 55-pound thrust rating provides ample power for boats up to 18 feet while maintaining the low-noise performance that prevents spooking fish in shallow water. The 54-inch shaft length accommodates most modern bow platforms and is sized for freshwater and light brackish applications. Wireless remote operation means full thrust, direction, and speed control from anywhere on the boat—critical when sight-casting or marking productive structure. The hand-held remote frees you from console-mounted controls and keeps you positioned where you can best read the water and manage your presentation.

This motor appeals to tournament bass anglers, walleye fishermen, and panfish specialists who need responsive, quiet trolling performance. Weekend pleasure anglers benefit equally—the wireless system simplifies installation and gives you the operational flexibility of high-end systems at a more accessible price point. The 12-volt architecture pairs with standard marine battery configurations, and the shaft length works within standard bow platform specifications for boats ranging from 16 to 19 feet.

MotorGuide's Xi3 series represents a balance between feature richness and real-world reliability. Wireless trolling motors have become the standard in modern freshwater fishing, and the Xi3-55SW delivers that technology with proven durability and serviceability across the MotorGuide dealer network.
