Features:

  • i-Pilot® GPS Trolling System: The most-trusted GPS system in fishing. i-Pilot® uses GPS to control your trolling motor with incredible features that keep you on the fish. Set Spot-Locks, record paths, control speed and steering, and more. i-Pilot makes boat positioning and control automatic, and you can take command from its easy-to-read large LCD screen.
  • Spot-Lock: Just press a button, and Spot-Lock will hold you in place with unparalleled GPS accuracy. Available on i-Pilot GPS systems, Spot-Lock gives you the power to stay right on top of any productive fishing spot automatically, without touching your trolling motor.

Activate Spot-Lock from the i-Pilot remote.

Ipilot conversion

Best ever upgrade!

Easy upgrade and worth every penny!

Terrova upgrade

The upgrade kit is worth every penny! Before the upgrade, the spot lock feature on my motor would barely keep my boat corralled in a 50’ circle and if there was any wind the circle got larger. After the upgrade, the spot lock feature…it LOCKS!!! All the other functions are a huge improvement as well…wish I’d done this years ago! Read the installation instructions, follow the wiring diagram, take your time, and the upgrade is easy. I called Northland twice with questions and got immediate answers…they’re the best.

Top notch

The service was great. You can tell when you call the spirit your employees immolate is they want to help.
Ryan was extremely helpful right down to making sure I had assembled the kit properly. Who does that? I’ll tell you, people who care, thanks for being there.

Works perfectly

I had to make numerous calls, and all questions were answered. So easy to get in touch with a real person. The kit was easy to install. Better directions would be helpful, but I got through it. Took it out on the water recently and huge improvement in spot lock. No problems at all. Super happy with the outcome.

Terrova upgrade

The conversion was relatively easy to do. Spo t lock is much improved as is the tracking.

Minn Kota upgrades

I wanted a better spot lock experience and was just not getting that with my old Terrova trolling motor. So I made my order with Northland Marine. When I got the new unit I went to work on installing it . It is a little tricky if you're not mechanical inclined but if you are it's going to be easy and saves you lots of money. Most of the install is plug and play with lots of heat shrink that was supplied with the new unit. After the install I went to the water and performed the recommended calibration with the trolling motor and the directional puck. After that I went to the Dam and fished the tail races . It was an amazing difference between the old unit and the new Bluetooth unit . I just wish I had did this sooner. Highly recommend for those who want better spot locks and Easy fishing.

Perfect fit and functions

Love it, had issues with another company. Spoke to Jason and Andrew, and they told me what was needed. I purchase the ipilot Bluetooth upgrade for my Terrova 80 24 v and installed it. Wow, what a diferance and everything works great. It’s nice to deal with a company that’s honest and knowledgeable. Thanks guys! Till next time when I need anything else.
