bwkre 11 Report post Posted March 16, 2017 I have the Shakespeare Glider Trolling Motor, 36-in, 55-lb from Canadian Tire. Bought it on sale about 6 years ago. It is the pwm model and has a battery gauge. Lots of power to push my 14' deep with 2 people. Has 5 fwd & 3 rev speeds. 10, 35, 50, 70 & 100% for fwd & 10, 70 & 100% in rev. I'm happy with it. I took it apart just after the 2 warranty to replace a bearing & reseal it, got a bit of water in it. Has a 2 yr exchange warranty that I just missed but it was an easy fix and I caught it in time. The poly carbonate mount is strong. I even took off one time and forgot to lift it out of the water. 18hp full throttle and about 20 seconds later it was in my lap, scared the **** out of me. Thought for sure it broke the mount, but it's still in one piece. Won't do that again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
