I have the 74lb 24 volt Minn Kota model on my 18 1/2 ft boat. No problems with it so far. I use the fresh water model in the saltwater all the time. The saltwater models are over priced. The only thing I ran into was mounting my depth finder. you can not tie-wrap the cable to the shaft because of the easy glide system. I ended up returning the trolling motor and getting one with a transducer built in. Check out Caleba's on line store for their reconditioned Minn Kota. Also make sure you get a shaft that is long enough. As a side note I used to have a minn kota 54lb 12v motor on my old boat. I never had a problem.
