Description
The durable, saltwater-ready Minn Kota Riptide Fortrex hand-controlled trolling motor features an extruded aluminum mono-arm design that helps your trolling motor run quieter and with less wear for longer life. The patented Lift-Assist design with a stainless steel, nitrogen gas-charged spring cuts the weight of stow-and-deploy in half, while the removable Bowguard 360 bracket breaks away on impact from any angle and automatically resets itself to give you uninterrupted fishing. The mounts integrated counter-tension stabilizer spring applies force whether the Riptide Fortrex is stowed or deployed, helping reduce steering torque. This variable-speed trolling motor includes Minn Kotas Digital Maximizer feature, which allows you to dial in your exact speed, draws only as much power as you need, and provides up to five times longer run time on a single battery charge. The push-to-test battery meter on the trolling motor head gives you an instant status of the battery life you have left. Minn Kota Riptide motors are designed with advanced corrosion protection and fully-encapsulated electronics to ensure the ultimate saltwater defense. The Riptide Fortrex trolling motor combines an indestructible composite shaft with the swept-back flared blades of the Weedless Wedge 2 Prop to power through anything without battery-draining chopping and hacking. This Minn Kota Riptide Fortrex has a 62-inch shaft length, features 112 pounds of thrust (36 volts), and includes a hold down strap, stabilizer, and mounting hardware. Built with saltwater-tough materials and corrosion-resistant coatings for dependable performance in harsh marine conditions. Backed by Minn Kotas proven durability for consistent results, trip after trip.
