Folks have been really excited about the Minn Kota Kayak Terrova motor since it launched. The big reason why is it is a kayak-specific trolling motor that only costs $1,599.99 USD.

It’s one of the least expensive options for a kayak trolling motor out there, and it’s made by a well-established brand. Minn Kota has been around for a long time—tested and tried and true.

The Kayak Terrova is very similar to the full-size boat model Terrova, except this one has a 36-in shaft, which is ideal for kayak anglers. It has 55 lbs of thrust, and I really like that it runs through a 12-volt battery, so you don’t have a lot of extra battery power, or a more expensive battery.

The motor is also really easy to operate and install. And you can control it with a handheld remote control. It also links via network through your fish finder. So, you can control it with the fish finder.

One of the things with a trolling motor on a kayak that is tough is the efficiency of the foot pedal that releases the motor and retrieves the motor. The Terrova is very smooth on the release and on the retraction. So, it deploys and stores quickly.

Overall, the Minn Kota Kayak Terrova provides a quality trolling motor at a great price. It’s available now from Minn Kota and retailers.

“Thank God my dad wasn’t a podiatrist,” Ric jokes about following in the footsteps of a famous outdoor writer. After graduating from Radford University and serving two years in Russia with the Peace Corps, Ric returned to Virginia Beach and started writing for The Fisherman magazine, where his dad was editor. When the kayak fishing scene exploded, Ric was among the first to get onboard. His 2007 book, The Complete Kayak Fisherman is one of the first how-to books to introduce anglers to paddle fishing. In 2010, Ric took on the role of editor at Kayak Angler magazine where he covered the latest trends in kayak fishing tactics, tackle, gear and destinations. A ravenous angler, Ric fishes from the mountain to the sea chasing everything from smallmouth bass to striped bass.
