Why did we leave the solid, extruded aluminum arm exposed on the new Fortrexä¢? So everyone else on the water knows what theyäó»re up against; the most ruthless motor weäó»ve ever unleashed. With fewer moving parts, tighter tolerances and less give, the Fortrexä¢ is the beefiest, meanest, quietest motor ever.
The mono-arm: your new secret weapon Sometimes, the simplest solution is best. In this case, itäó»s a revolution. Fortrexäó»sä¢ innovative Mono-Arm Design features an extruded, anodized aluminum, structural beam that operates with no metal-to-metal contact and 75% less torsion. A single hinge point and rear pivot bearing with 20% more surface area deliver less wear, longer life and quieter operation than
traditional motor mounts.
Two Beams äóñ One Great Picture
Expand your view and see greater bottom detail with Universal Sonar 2äó»s
dual beam technology (available on Humminbird¬ DualBeam PLUSä¢ units).
It uses a combination of 20Á and 60Á angles to scan the water and gives you
a whole new outlook on whatäó»s happening below. Also features advanced
temperature sensing.
Lift-AsSist eases stow and deploy
Fortrexäó»sä¢ patented Lift-Assist design cuts the weight of stow and deploy
in half. Features a stainless steel, nitrogen gas-charged spring.
Removable Bowguard 360犢
Lifting the motor and bowguard off of the mount is now even easier on Fortrexä¢
äóñ just remove a single cap screw. The patented Bowguard 360Áä¢ also features a
dual bearing system that eliminates noise and allows for improved breakaways from
any angle.
Itäó»s Whatäó»s Inside That Counts
The Universal Sonar 2 transducer and wiring
are completely concealed, giving it a clean,
streamlined look and protection from the elements.
No unsightly wires or clamps. No exposed
connections. No rigging required. Out of sight and
out of mind so you can count on it to be there
when you need it most.
Counter-Tension Stabilizer (CTS)
CTS uses an integrated spring that applies force
whether the motoräó»s stowed or deployed. On the
water, that translates to a motor with no play, no
give, reduced steering torque and silent operation.
