LOWELL, Mich. (Nov. 15, 2010) - A new rugged aluminum alloy transom mount indicates the strength you can expect from the new R3 trolling motor from MotorGuide. The R3, which sports five forward and two reverse speeds, is available in 30-, 40-, 45- and 55-pound thrust variations, and comes with an array of features not normally found in its price range. The head is easily reversible to allow back trolling and numerous mount locations. Complete with an ergonomic extending handle and aluminum shaft, the R3 is the perfect choice for the angler seeking a versatile and high-quality, low-cost trolling motor.
"The highest priority when developing the new R3 was value for the customer," said Ben Curtis, category director at MotorGuide. "The resulting product is both solid and reasonable. This latest offering from MotorGuide will provide the owner a quiet and reliable pursuit of fish for many years to come."
