Better price than Minn Kota
Bill✓ Verified Purchase•August 22, 2023
I'm usually a Minn Kota or Motorguide guy but they are expensive. I've heard of Newport Marine before but never tried anything. This motor was a lot cheaper than other options and seems to be just as well made. I'm glad I gave Newport a try.

the 5 speed forward/reverse feature works well. there are no stops, or detents built into the handle to separate one speed from the next. the mounting bracket is plastic and that worries me but for the cost compared to other mfgr's i'll take the risk. nearly four hours of low speed trolling and no discernable loss of power. the blue LED light bars could be a different color, after all the motor is camo for a reason and the light bar glows brightly. 55# of thrust is more than sufficient to move my semi-vee 12' aluminum rowboat. the camo paint though may not last as long as the motor but that's what spray paint is for i guess. overall a solid 4 stars for it's maiden use and a 5th if the LED lights were green, if the transom mounting bracket was metal, and if the telescopic handle had some type of built in stop between the different speeds. and yes, 4th and 5th speed are nearly if not identical. still it works well for it's asking price.
Replaced my original motor

Has longer shaft for better height adjustment. More thrust than others

No on the water use yet, but the matte tan paint job was flawless out of the box and when tested the motor was quite and smooth, with no hints of vibration when ran through all speeds.
Much louder than my old Minn Kota 30lb. loud humming noise when running at any speed.

able to run much deeper than my old motor, that would sometimes come out of the water and make lots of noise depending on where I was standing in the boat. battery gauge is nice, very bright. motor is very loud compared to my older minn kota. this may be partly because this is a 40lb thrust vs 30lb, but it is louder at low speeds also. propels the boat nicely, 3 blade prop is smaller diameter than 2 blade.
hardware looks to be mostly stainless, so should be fairly corrosion proof. some force is needed to click the mount into the full vertical or full horizontal position. a few times I didn't have it clicked in all the way and it slipped to the next notch with a loud snap. If I push on it a little harder I could get it to click in fully.
