Riptide Transom
Saltwater Transom Mount

Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor steps up to the rigors of saltwater and never backs down. Where lesser motors fold their tents and head home under pressure, Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor brings it day after day. You simply cannot find a trolling motor better suited to give saltwater the ultimate stare down. End of story.

One-Hand Stow
A remarkably simple, one-hand stow mechanism gets Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor in and out of the water in no time. Just pull up and forward to stow the motor with no buttons or release levers. Then when it's time to go, use the easy-access thumb release to deploy Riptide Transom into any of ten different positions.

Steering Tension Control
The innovative new tension collar above the Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor 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 - which allows for true vertical stowing.

Quick-Lock Cam Depth Adjuster
Change depths simply and securely with the Quick-Lock cam adjuster. It makes depth adjustment simple and locks in tight to keep your motor right where you want it.

Tilt/Extend Tiller
Get the best of both worlds on your hand control motor with the new Tilt/Extend Tiller. It can both tilt (up to 45�) and extend (6") to fit the way you fish.

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 Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor 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. Minn Kota Riptide RT55/S Transom Mount Saltwater Trolling Motor 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, our composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won't break, kink or corrode. That's why we're confident enough to make it the only trolling motor shaft that's guaranteed for life.

Three-Year Warranty
This motor is backed up with Minn Kota's� three-year warranty

Digital Maximizer
Digital Maximizer� controls and optimizes power to extend battery life and reduce damaging heat. You?ll stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge.

Weedless Wedge 2 Prop
Push weeds away and take on the thick stuff without battery-draining chopping and hacking. Weedless Wedge� 2 features swept-back, flared blades for unrelenting, reliable prop performance.
