The Minn Kota Riptide RT80 Transom Mount Trolling Motor (part number 1363831) is a 24V, 80 lbs. thrust motor designed for saltwater applications. It features a 42-inch composite shaft engineered for durability and resistance to corrosion, flexing on impact without kinking or breaking. The motor incorporates advanced corrosion resistance through premium alloys, multi-step cleaning, and tough coatings, along with fully encapsulated electronics and waterproof heat shrink tubing for all connections. A sacrificial zinc anode further protects against galvanic corrosion. Steering is managed via a Tilt-Extend Tiller, which offers up to 45 degrees of tilt and extends up to 6 inches for maneuverability. Speed control is variable, supported by Digital Maximizer technology to optimize power usage and extend battery life. A Push-To-Test Battery Meter provides immediate battery status. The Weedless Wedge 2 propeller is designed to navigate through weeds efficiently, minimizing battery drain. This motor is suitable for commercial or recreational vessels requiring reliable, corrosion-resistant propulsion in marine environments.
