Power-Pole
FEATURE
Stealth Steering Drive
are key to the power production
and the operational reliability of
the motor.
The motor and steering systems are
engineered to produce ultimate power while
remaining near silent in their operation.
The Power Unity System and reinforced
Techflow Propeller are said to create 30
per cent more power than industry-leading
trolling motors, all while being whisper
quiet.
The low-profile bracket features the
ported aluminium design made famous
by its Blade Shallow Water Anchors and
is protected by Power-Pole’s Multi-layer
Corrosion Resistance Technology. Even the
hinges, locks and pivot points of the bracket
are engineered to withstand the rigours of
extreme fishing conditions.
The revolutionary shaft is manufactured
from nearly unbreakable aerospace-grade
titanium that will hold up to extreme
pressure. That shaft combined with the
bracket has been tested to withstand the
harshest environments in fishing. While
it is built to last, the MOVE is built with
contingencies so that anglers can stay on the
water. Compound fail-safes were engineered
into the system to ensure that the motor
functions as it should even if parts become
compromised.
Robert Shamblin, vice-president of JL
Marine Systems, explained how much went
into the development of the motor. “The
Power-Pole MOVE Brushless Trolling
Motor is a culmination of years of hard work
and dedication of the Power Pole team. I
am happy to say that the result is the best
trolling motor on the market, and I can’t
wait for everyone to be ‘MOVEd’ when they
experience what we’ve produced.”
SETTING THE STANDARD
The MOVE Brushless Trolling Motor
comes standard with all of the features the
modern angler has become accustomed to
and more.
Advanced Anchor Mode allows the angler
to stealthily maintain position while focusing
on fishing, while the Vector Heading feature
follows a straight course down a bank or
offshore drift and the Follow a Route feature
guided by ProNav allows the angler to use
the Power-Pole app or compatible device to
set a route for the motor to follow. Finally, a
Compass Heading feature causes the motor
to bear towards specific compass headings
identified by the user.
The Power-Pole MOVE Brushless
Trolling Motor is available in two versions –
the MOVE ZR has a hinged scissor bracket
commonly used on bass boats while the
MOVE PV boasts a pivoting version most
commonly used on saltwater and big water
boats.
Both are built to withstand use in
saltwater environments, will operate in
24- or 36-volt systems, are integrated
with Power-Pole’s C-Monster 2.0 wireless
connection system and produce Max True
Thrust of 100lb in a 36-volt system or 78lb
in a 24-volt setup. Power-Pole has chosen to
use real world honest “True Thrust” numbers
to measure MOVE performance instead of
the current scaling standards.
Quite simply, the Power-Pole MOVE
Brushless Trolling Motor is built to be
the strongest, quietest, most reliable, most
powerful, weed-destroying trolling motor on
the market.
Each motor carries a three-year warranty
on everything but the titanium shaft, which
is protected by a lifetime warranty, similar
to Power-Pole’s Lifetime Everflex Spike
Warranty found in its Shallow Water
Anchors, all backed by its top-class customer
service.
PROOF OF THE PUDDING
Pro angler Chris Lane, a multi-time
champion and Power-Pole pro, testified
to the quality of the product, saying: “This
trolling motor is the ultimate combination
of everything I need to compete.
“MOVE is the lightest and quietest I
have ever used and is the most powerful
and strongest at the same time; it has truly
helped me go more places and catch more
fish.”
Lane’s brother Bobby, a champion angler
and key Power-Pole pro staffer himself,
added: “I am primarily a shallow water
angler and being stealthy is very important
to me. MOVE is not only the quietest
motor I have ever used, but it has every
major feature I need to be competitive and
some that you don’t expect; it is truly the
best I have ever used.”
The MOVE ZR is available in shaft
lengths of 45, 52 and 60in versions while
the MOVE PV is also available in these
shaft lengths plus a 72in model.
