Lowrance has announced Recon, a new generation electric steer trolling motor, developed for both fresh and saltwater anglers, featuring a unique joystick remote and best in class power and GPS positioning.
Recon is all about control – of your boat, your position and your catch. Between the premium power and GPS and unique joystick remote, “Recon takes care of all the heavy lifting so anglers can focus on the fish,” said Jeremiah Clark, VP & General Manager, Fishing Systems at Navico Group.
Recon gives anglers total control and the confidence to go anywhere. Recon introduces Freesteer, a lightweight, wearable joystick remote providing full 360o precision steering. Combined with a wireless foot pedal with programmable keypad (freshwater only) and seamless display integration via NMEA 2000, Recon delivers precision like nothing else on the market.
Claiming best-in-class power and thrust with a highly accurate GPS anchor that dials into an incredible one metre radius, it holds position, no matter the conditions. The FreeSteer remote unlocks the ability to execute diagonal jogs in eight directions. Anglers also have the option to move anchor positions freely, in almost any direction, without having to re-anchor the boat.
Brushless technology combined with the weedless prop, allows for searching into the densest weeds with no loss of control or efficiency. Recon’s silent brushless motor doesn’t spook fish, and the integrated sonar technology offers clear high-resolution pictures – the sonar nosecone is upgradeable.
The Lowrance Recon trolling motor starts at $3,299 and is available in fresh and saltwater versions. The freshwater is available in 48, 54, 60 and 72-inch shaft lengths, while the saltwater version is available in 54, 60, and 72-inch shaft lengths. There’s a lifetime shaft warranty.
