Saltwater Transom Mount

Just pull up and forward to stow the motor with no buttons or release levers.

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.
