Riptide Bow Mount Autopilot
Riptide Saltwater Bow Mount Series
The corrosive effects of salt, water and metal can bring an ordinary trolling motor to its knees. That's why we engineered the Riptide to be so incredibly tough. The all-new look features additional corrosion protection, new stainless steel hardware and a special “sacrificial anode” designed to stop galvanic corrosion in its tracks. Call it overkill or obsession, Riptide is simply the toughest, most durable saltwater trolling motor on the water. Choose models from 55 to 65lbs (24.9 to 29.5kg) of continuous thrust.

Sacrfical Anode
Corrosion attacks this replaceable zinc component rather than the metallic surfaces of your trolling motor. Attaches quickly and easily to prop hub

Urethane Encapsulated Electronics
Permanently seals all internal components from harsh saltwater elements. Far superior to competive conformal coated electronics.

Maximiser™
Delivers five times more power on a single battery charge.
Bow Mount Series
Stainless Steel Hardware
Provides an extra measure of durability and corrosion resistance while maintaining a clean, sharp appearance.

Autopilot
Automatic steering delivers the ultimate in fishing freedom. Simply point the motor in the direction you want to travel and the boat follows (available on RT65/AP).

Cool, Quiet Power™
Features larger brushes and commutators to provide for cooler, more quiet operation. Low rpms/high torque cuts down on fish-spooking noise . . . so quiet they'll never hear you coming.

Indestructible Composite Shaft
Better then steel, particularly in saltwater. Will not bend, kink, rust or corrode. Guaranteed for life.
