Minn Kota’s entry into the shallow water anchor line with two models is going to attract huge interest in the club market.  It has many features that have not been available.  Key features of Talon include:

  • Auto-Drive for automatic anchoring
  • Rough Water Mode continues the anchoring sequence to assure a secure hold in any conditions
  • Built-in wireless remote comes standard
  • Built-in Wave Absorption provides a floating suspension system to keep spike anchored when boat rocks
  • Easy, less expensive installation
  • Vertical and tilt adjustments for mounting flexibility
  • LED indicator lights show when spike is deployed and at what depth
  • Deployment Notification Alarm can be wired to the ignition to sound an alarm when the key is turned on and the spike is still deployed

Talon comes with a comprehensive 2-year warranty and lifetime guarantee on the spike. It is available with either a 6-foot-4-inch or 8-foot-4-inch spike and choice of a black or white color scheme. The manufacturer’s suggested retail prices for Talon are $1,299 with a 6-foot-4-inch spike and $1,449 with an 8-foot-4-inch spike. All models can be used in freshwater or saltwater and come standard with two wireless remote controls. Talon will be available to consumers this fall. Visit minnkotamotors.com
