Features of Minn Kota Riptide Transom Trolling Motor:
Steering Tension Control - The innovative collar above the Riptide Transom mount allows you to adjust steering tension precisely to your desired level. Keep it loose for effortless steering or tighten it down to keep Riptide Transom in place, allowing for true vertical stowing.
Quick-Lock Cam Depth Adjuster - Riptide Transom - This easy-to-use adjuster lets you change depths simply and securely, and it locks in tight to keep your motor right where you want it.
Tilt-Extend Tiller - Riptide Transom - Riptide Transom's innovative, comfortable tiller handle can both tilt (up to 45°) and extend (up to 6") for maximum control to fit any style of fishing.
Push-to-Test Battery Gauge - Riptide Transom - Get an instant "state of charge" with this easy-to-read gauge.
Advanced Corrosion Protection - Riptide motors are impervious to saltwater's corrosive effects, thanks to premium-grade marine alloys and aluminum upper arms. Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with a special zinc dichromate armor plating. All components are then finished with a durable 5-mil TGIC polyester, powder coat paint. When it's all done, you're left with unequaled corrosion protection.
Full Encapsulated Electronics - Marine-grade urethane fully encapsulates Riptide control boards to protect the electronic circuitry. Also, all electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing to form an impregnable barrier against saltwater.
Sacrificial Anode - Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals come into electrical contact through saltwater. Riptide fights back with a patented sacrificial zinc anode, a composite shaft and properly balanced materials that are close in electrical potential. The result is a motor that's completely protected from saltwater's destructive forces.
Indestructible Composite Shaft - Guaranteed For Life! - Pound for pound, this composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won't break, kink or corrode. That's why Minn Kota is confident enough to make it the only trolling motor shaft that's guaranteed for life.
Cool, Quiet Power - Nothing runs cooler or more quietly than a Minn Kota. Minn Kota's extra large windings and commutators dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power, and longer motor life. And the unique bearing system reduces friction to cut fish-spooking noise. So quiet, they'll never hear you coming.
Two-Year Warranty - This motor is backed up with Minn Kota's two-year warranty
