M Series
70 / 110 / 150 lbs maximum thrust
The widest voltage span in the range. MAX200 runs 70 lbs on 12V, MAX300 runs 110 lbs on 24V or 150 lbs on 48V, all on …
Industry Application · Coastal and inshore water
Saltwater Fishing
Every Hightime series carries an anti-corrosion system for seawater or saltwater use, and the brushless series add sealed motor cans with no brushes to service.
Hightime trolling motor mounted on the transom of an inflatable boat in coastal water.
Pain Points
What Goes Wrong In This Application
- Salt attacks fasteners, brackets and the motor can within a season
- Brush wear is faster where the motor runs long hours under load
- A 12V motor runs out of thrust once wind and chop build
- Cable and connector corrosion causes voltage drop and nuisance cut-outs
What The Customer Needs
What Hightime Specifies Against It
- Anti-corrosion system for seawater or saltwater use on all eight series
- Stainless steel shaft on the M, P150/P250 and P200/P300 Series
- 24V and 48V brushless options up to 150 lbs of thrust
- Overload protection and reverse connection protection on the P Series

Solution Flow
How We Work Through A Specification
Define The Boat
Hull length, loaded weight including crew and tackle, transom height and the battery voltage available on board.
Pick The Thrust Band
Match against the published maximum boat load per model, then add margin for wind and current.
Choose Brush Or Brushless
12V stepped control for simple duty, variable control and 24V or 48V where the hours are long or the water is salt.
Confirm Packing And Loading
Carton size, net and gross weight and container quantity are published per series so you can plan the shipment.

FAQ
Saltwater Fishing Questions
What buyers in this application ask most.
Which Series Do You Recommend For Saltwater Fishing
The series shown on this page cover the usual cases. Send us the boat length, the loaded weight and the battery voltage you run and we will name the exact model.
How Much Thrust Do I Need
Work from loaded weight rather than hull length. The published maximum boat load runs from 200 kg on the T Series to 1200 kg on the MAX300 and P300. Our thrust selection guide sets out the method.
Can One Battery Cover A Full Session
The factory reference across the range is a 100AH deep cycle battery. Rated current is 11A on the brush series and 5A on the brushless series, so a full session is normal at trolling speed. The battery guide shows the arithmetic.
Is The Propeller Weed Resistant
Yes. A weedless machete propeller is fitted to every series, 2-blade on the T Series and 3-blade on the others.
