Rhino VX 55 V2 Electric Outboard Motor – powerful 55lb 12V fishing boat motor
The Rhino VX 55 V2 Electric Outboard Motor delivers 55lb of thrust from a 12V system, providing quiet and efficient propulsion for a wide range of fishing craft. With optimised power consumption, a telescopic tiller and precise speed control, it is designed for anglers who need greater thrust for larger inflatables, fishing boats, row boats, canoes and other compatible craft.
The VX 55 V2 combines five forward and three reverse gears with continuously adjustable propeller immersion depth and steering resistance. This gives the angler greater control when travelling, trolling or positioning the boat over a fishing area. An improved information display makes battery monitoring straightforward, while the motor can be tilted up quickly at the push of a button when moving into shallow water or bringing the boat ashore.
With its 79cm stainless steel shaft and saltwater-protected construction, the VX 55 V2 is suitable for fishing Irish lakes as well as appropriate coastal and estuary use. The quiet electric drive is particularly useful when approaching pike and perch fishing areas, while 55lb of thrust provides additional power for dealing with larger craft, wind and open water conditions.

Why It Works for Irish Anglers
The 55lb thrust makes this model particularly useful when more power is required for larger fishing craft or exposed Irish waters where wind can make boat positioning difficult. Its 5/3 gear system gives anglers useful control for trolling and working fishing areas, while the quiet operation helps minimise disturbance when approaching productive swims and structures.
