Conquer saltwater with the Minn Kota Riptide SF 80 Saltwater Bow-Mount Trolling Motor — a 24-volt, 80-pound thrust bow-mount engineered for rugged reliability and stealth performance. This 62" shaft powerhouse is built to handle corrosive conditions while delivering precise control, so you can stay on the bite longer and with less effort.
- Mono-Arm Design: An extruded, anodized aluminum structural beam that operates with no metal-to-metal contact, delivering 75% less torsion, quieter operation, and extended life. A single hinge point and a rear pivot bearing provide more surface area for reduced wear.
- Counter-Tension Stabilizer (CTS): An integrated spring keeps the motor tight and responsive whether stowed or deployed, eliminating play, reducing steering torque, and delivering silent performance on the water.
- Lift-Assist: Cuts stow-and-deploy weight in half with a nitrogen-charged gas spring for effortless handling, even in rough conditions.
- Removable Bowguard 360°: Easy removal with a single cap screw and a dual bearing system that minimizes noise and improves breakaway protection from any angle.
- Quick-Lock Cam Depth Adjuster: Change depths quickly and securely, so you stay right on the spot with confidence.
- Tilt/Extend Tiller: Enjoy the best of both worlds with tilt up to 45° and a 6" extension to match your preferred fishing stance.
- Push-to-Test Battery Gauge: Instantly know your state of charge at a glance, so you’re never caught by surprise.
- Digital Maximizer: Optimizes power delivery to extend battery life, letting you stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge.
- Weedless Wedge 2 Prop: Pushes weeds away with swept-back, flared blades for reliable performance in thick vegetation without draining your battery.
- Advanced Corrosion Protection: Premium marine alloys and multi-step protection prevent saltwater corrosion, including anodized arms and tough coatings for long-lasting performance.
- Full Encapsulated Electronics: Marine-grade urethane seals control boards and sealed connections guard against the elements, delivering dependable operation in harsh seas.
Whether you’re fishing miles offshore or exploring estuarine flats, the Riptide SF 80 combines heavy-duty power with refined, low-maintenance design. It’s the ultimate bow-mount solution for saltwater adventures that demand reliability, stealth, and long days on the water.
