Minn Kota Riptide Maxxum RT80/SM/L-D Bow-Mount Trolling Motor - 24V-80lb-52"
The Minn Kota Riptide Maxxum RT80/SM/L-D delivers the precision, quiet operation, and corrosion resistance saltwater anglers demand from a bow-mount trolling motor. Built around a tournament-tested SM mount, fully encapsulated electronics, and a lifetime-guaranteed composite shaft, this 24V/80lb unit is engineered to hold position and perform reliably in harsh marine environments.
The Latch & Door design uses non-binding nylon inserts and anti-seize lubricant for quick motor removal and safe storage. A Quick-Lock cam depth adjuster lets you change depths fast and lock them in firmly. The Tilt/Extend Tiller tilts up to 45° and extends 6" to suit your preferred fishing posture. A push-to-test battery gauge gives you an instant state-of-charge reading, and the Weedless Wedge 2 prop clears vegetation with swept-back, flared blades rather than chopping through it.
Corrosion protection is multi-layered: premium marine alloys and aluminum upper arms go through a multi-step cleaning process before anodizing or zinc dichromate armor plating, then receive a 5-mil TGIC polyester powder coat finish. Control boards are encapsulated in marine-grade urethane, all electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing, and a sacrificial zinc anode guards against galvanic corrosion. Backed by Minn Kota's two-year warranty.
