{"product_id":"minn-kota-ulterra-quest","title":"Minn Kota Ulterra QUEST","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUlterra QUEST\u003c\/b\u003e represents the next generation of Minn Kota motors, featuring a completely redesigned automation system, mechanical structure, and electrical architecture to handle heavier loads and more demanding operating conditions. The new \u003cb\u003e24\/36 V dual-voltage brushless QUEST motor\u003c\/b\u003e delivers significantly more torque and efficiency, and its control logic utilizes \u003cb\u003ereal-time load monitoring\u003c\/b\u003e to ensure optimal power consumption and temperature management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUlterra’s iconic automation features—\u003cb\u003eAuto Stow\/Deploy\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003ePower Trim\u003c\/b\u003e—are integrated into a new, reinforced lift mechanism and updated mounting bracket that withstand greater lateral forces and dynamic loads caused by waves. All lift, lower, and trim functions can be performed \u003cb\u003evia the remote control, Heel-Toe foot pedal, One-Boat Network® App, or Humminbird sonar\u003c\/b\u003e without physical contact with the motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe redesigned \u003cb\u003eAdvanced GPS Trolling System\u003c\/b\u003e utilizes a more precise positioning algorithm that improves \u003cb\u003eSpot-Lock\u003c\/b\u003e hold and route-tracking accuracy, particularly in crosswinds and unstable current conditions. The system includes \u003cb\u003eJog\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eAutoPilot\u003c\/b\u003e, route recording, speed and direction control, and automatic boat positioning. As part of the \u003cb\u003eOne-Boat Network\u003c\/b\u003e ecosystem, the Ulterra can be seamlessly synchronized with Humminbird devices, allowing control of the motor, sonar, and anchor systems from a single unified user interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe transducer solution integrated into the motor offers options for \u003cb\u003eMEGA Side Imaging\u003c\/b\u003e sonar or \u003cb\u003eDual Spectrum CHIRP\u003c\/b\u003e technology. The transducer is located in a protected channel at the bottom of the motor, which minimizes cable exposure to impacts and ensures an interference-free signal at all speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe programmable \u003cb\u003eHeel-Toe foot pedal\u003c\/b\u003e includes up, down, and trim controls, as well as a user-configurable quick-access button that can be set to functions such as AutoPilot, waypoint marking, or Minn Kota anchor control. The pedal is designed for precise speed and direction control even when the boat is moving erratically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor’s electrical system includes \u003cb\u003ereal-time battery monitoring\u003c\/b\u003e, which displays remaining runtime and alerts the user at the 20% charge level. At this point, the user can activate \u003cb\u003eEco Mode\u003c\/b\u003e, which optimizes power consumption and extends runtime. \u003cb\u003eDigital Maximizer™\u003c\/b\u003e enables up to five times the runtime compared to traditional stepper motors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn terms of construction, the motor utilizes a \u003cb\u003ecarbon-fiber-reinforced composite shaft\u003c\/b\u003e designed to flex but not break—and which comes with a \u003cb\u003elifetime warranty\u003c\/b\u003e. An updated mount and lifting mechanism reduce resonance and improve motor stability in rough water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ulterra QUEST comes ready to use: built-in \u003cb\u003eMEGA Side Imaging\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eHeading Sensor\u003c\/b\u003e, wireless remote control, \u003cb\u003eHeel-Toe foot pedal\u003c\/b\u003e, MKP-40 propeller, Ethernet cables, and all necessary installation components. The internal control system does not require a separate external heading sensor, which simplifies installation and reduces cabling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Minn Kota","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53447437779287,"sku":null,"price":1.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2315\/7591\/files\/MK_Ulterra_QUEST_HeroAlt.webp?v=1777641539","url":"https:\/\/albaboats.fi\/en\/products\/minn-kota-ulterra-quest","provider":"Alba Boats","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
