Minn Kota® Riptide® Transom-Mount Saltwater Trolling Motors
Minn Kota® Riptide® Transom-Mount Trolling Motors offer advanced corrosion protection. Premium-grade alloys are impervious to rust. Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with special zinc dichromate armor plating. All components are then finished with a 5-mil TGIC polyester powder coat paint. All models except SC models feature Digital Maximizer Technology which allows up to five times longer run time on a single charge. All Riptide trolling motors feature a sacrificial zinc anode to fight galvanic corrosion. The replaceable anode is conveniently mounted on the prop hub for better protection and longer motor life. All Riptide motors feature a two-year manufacturer's warranty.

Rated 1 out of 5 by dannyr12 riiptide 101
every time I used this motor something broke.first the plastic handle broke when I was attaching it to the boat and finaly the whole motor broke loose from the mount almost pulling a friend overboard the mount has a lot of plastic and is to weak for the weight and strength of the motor , the motor seems well built and solid but the mount is very poor. I would not buy the 101 the other might not b as heavy im going to try the motorguid 105.
