Remote Holder fits the Minn-Kota Advanced GPS trolling Motor Remote (Carbon Fiber Infused)

What buyers think

Buyer feedback is strongly centered on fit and usability. Multiple reports mention the holder fits the remote closely and feels secure, with no concern about the remote slipping out. Several shoppers also highlight the practical layout, describing it as a convenient way to keep the remote accessible on the dash. People who used alternative mounting methods (like marine double-sided tape) generally express satisfaction with the setup flexibility, and a few reviewers comment on how the holder looks installed in a clean, dashboard-style configuration.

Overall, buyer-review evidence is limited to fitment, security, and day-to-day convenience, but those themes are consistent: when the remote is the intended one, the holder tends to be praised for staying put and keeping access quick.

What this holder does well

Built around the i-Pilot Advanced GPS remote

This is not a universal cradle, it is made to match the Minn Kota i-Pilot Advanced GPS remote. That matters because a “close enough” holder can feel loose or awkward to remove, and a loose fit can be frustrating on the water. The holder’s design aims to keep the remote snug while still allowing quick access.

Slide-in access that stays practical

A standout design feature is the ability to slide the remote in and out easily. That helps if you store the remote between uses but still want it within reach when you need it. The holder is also intended to allow operating the remote while it is seated in the holder, which can simplify your workflow on the helm.

Materials and finish

The holder uses carbon-fiber-infused PETG-CF, with the goal of combining a solid, marine-friendly feel with an attractive, finished look. PETG-CF is positioned here as the durability-focused material choice, which is exactly what you want from a piece of gear that will see daily handling and a marine environment.

Installation: screws or marine tape

The holder includes pre-drilled holes for mounting, and there is also an option to use marine-grade tape for a non-permanent setup. Screws are not included, so you will need to use your own appropriate hardware for your dashboard or mounting surface. If you plan to use tape, choose a marine-grade product suited to your material and wipe down the surface properly first to maximize adhesion.

Pros and cons, summarized for buyers

Who it’s best for

• You own the Minn Kota i-Pilot Advanced GPS remote and want a dedicated holder instead of a generic cradle
• You want quick slide-in storage, with the option to operate the remote while it remains mounted
• You prefer flexible mounting, either drilling with screw holes or using marine-grade tape
• You care about a clean dashboard look, not just functional storage

Who should avoid it

• If you’re using a different remote model, a purpose-built holder like this can be the wrong fit
• If you cannot mount with screws and do not want to use tape, you may need a different installation approach

Is it worth it?

This is a good value pick for owners who want a secure, purpose-fit holder for the i-Pilot Advanced GPS remote, with simple access and a professional-looking finish. If you are specifically buying for that remote model and you’re comfortable choosing between screw or marine tape mounting, the decision tends to be straightforward. If you are unsure about fitment, confirm compatibility first, because this product is built around a specific remote.
