Product Description

The Maxxum 70/BG Bowguard & Foot Control is the ultimate propulsion system for anglers seeking reliability and performance on the water. Designed to withstand harsh conditions and provide precise control, this 24V motor delivers up to 70 pounds of thrust with a 52-inch composite shaft, making it perfect for both fresh and challenging waters.

Unmatched Mounting Stability

Maxxum Mount ensures your motor stays securely in place, even in rough conditions or through treacherous stump fields. Tournament-tested, the Maxxum Mount is built to plow through any obstacle without budging, flexing, or vibrating, giving you peace of mind while you fish.

Enhanced Protection and Quiet Operation

Bowguard 360°™ provides all-around protection for your motor and boat. It breaks away on impact from any direction and automatically resets, allowing you to fish without worry. The dual bearing system not only eliminates noise but also ensures the Bowguard is easily removable for maintenance.

Precision Control at Your Feet

Maxxum Foot Pedal offers ultra-responsive cable steering with an ergonomic design for exact speed control and precision heel-toe steering. The 5-foot cable allows you to stay connected to the water, providing seamless maneuverability.

Advanced Speed Control

Digital Maximizer technology extends your run time by up to five times on a single charge by optimizing power usage. With variable speed control, you can dial in your exact speed, conserving battery life and maximizing your time on the water.

Illuminated Directional Indicator keeps you informed of your heading in any conditions. Available on Foot Control models, this feature enhances navigation and safety during low-light conditions.

Superior Propeller Performance

Weedless Wedge™ 2 Propeller is designed to push weeds aside and handle thick vegetation without draining your battery. Its swept-back, flared blades ensure reliable prop performance, making it ideal for maintaining smooth operation in challenging environments.
