Minn Kota 80 RipTide Maximizer Bowguard Hand-Control, 3X Steering, 24 Volts 80 lb Thrust 52" Shaft
Every ounce of corrosion-protection you’ll ever need, along with three times the boat positioning control.
Here's a trolling motor that takes the very best and makes it three times better. Exclusive 3X Steering moves the lower unit three times the normal rate for the ultimate in boat positioning and bait presentation. Triple the response, triple the control and triple the reason to choose Riptide. Backed by the most saltwater-fighting, corrosion-resistance on the water today.
Tilt Twist Tiller
Puts natural outboard convenience in the palm of your hand. Quick access. Instant response. Multi-position handle. |
Bowguard 360°
Exclusive, patented feature breaks away on impact from any angle, protecting your motor, shaft and boat. Provides uninterrupted fishing as the motor will automatically reset itself. No more leaning over the bow of your boat on your hands and knees wrestling with resetting your motor. Easily detaches for added convenience. Available on select models. |
3X Steering
Features our exclusive 3X Steering. Move the Tilt Steering Control just 60 degrees to change the lower unit a full 180. Slight handle adjustments give you ultra-responsive boat control for better bait presentation. Eliminates tiller interference with your outboard or kicker motor. |
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! |
