Title: Miin Kota from America with European Helix?
Post by: MarjanK on September 25, 2020, 10:55:55 AM

Hi,

Is there any difference between a Minn Kota sold in America and one sold in Europe (except huge in price :-\ ).

Will the “American” minn kota work in conjunction with the “European” Helix9 G3N?

I mean the model Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 80 w / i-Pilot Link & Bluetooth - 24V

I know the difference with the sonar (the American doesn't show depth in meters).

Thanks for the help,

Best Regards,
Marjan

What could be the problem? According to the catalog number Model: 1363747, it is supposed to be the same product.

It seems that the only difference between the US and International version Humminbird units is some boot code (as noted here http://forums.sideimagingsoft.com/index.php?topic=10444.msg60626#new (http://forums.sideimagingsoft.com/index.php?topic=10444.msg60626#new) )

I would think the trolling motors are the same if the part number is the same  ...
