Minn Kota 80/S RipTide Maximizer 24 Volts 80 lb Thrust 42" Shaft
Minn Kota Riptide transom-mount motors are packed with a host of saltwater-fighting components and features that are designed to keep you on the water longer.
Give saltwater the ultimate stare down. When it comes to warding off the evils of saltwater, Riptide steps up and simply won't back down. When lesser motors are reduced to weak-kneed fodder for the junk heap, Riptide brings it like a champ. Where others can only claim to be worthy, Riptide proves its mettle - day after day, year after year. You simply cannot find a trolling motor better suited to stand up to saltwater. End of story.
 Transom Bracket
Features a rock-solid, multi-position mounting bracket. Fits transoms up to 3" thick. Built to withstand the punishment of big waves and destructive salt. |
 Tilt Twist Tiller
Puts natural outboard convenience in the palm of your hand. Quick access. Instant response. Multi-position handle. |
 Maximizer
Up to five times longer run time on a single charge.
Controls the draw of power at infinitely variable speeds. Eliminates wasted energy and conserves battery power for more time on the water. Available on select models. |
 Advanced Corrosion Protection
Riptide features premium-grade marine alloys, including aluminum upper arms that are virtually impervious to oxidative corrosion (rust). Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with a special zinc dichromate armor plating. All component are then finished with a 5-mil TGIC polyester, powder coat paint. |
 Fully Encapsulated Electronics
Riptide control boards (1) are fully encapsulated in marine-grade urethane (2) to protect the electronic circuitry. All electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing to form an impregnable barrier against the destructive effects of saltwater. |
 Sacrificial Anode
A patented sacrificial anode protects the motor from galvanic corrosion. Saltwater attacks the zinc anode (discretely located on the prop hub), which can be easily replaced when necessary. The result is better protection and longer motor life. |
 Cool, Quiet Power
Nothing runs cooler or more quietly than Minn Kota. Extra large windings and commutators are used to dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power and longer motor life. A unique bearing system produces low rpms/high torque to cut down on fish-spooking noise - so quiet they'll never hear you coming. |
 Indestructible Composite Shaft
The standard of the industry since 1991! Pound for pound, our ultra high-yield composite material has been tested to be three times the strength of steel. Virtually indestructible, it flexes on impact and then returns to its original position. Unlike steel, will not kink, break, rust or corrode - guaranteed for life! |
