Riptide SE Mount Built from marine-grade aluminum, this is a strong and lightweight mount that's built to last. The rear stow latch allows for easy stowing when the motor needs to be removed from the water for transport, rough waters or high speeds. Latch and Door Design Need to remove the motor from the mount? Not a problem! Riptide SE's latch-and-door design makes it simple to remove the motor and shaft for storage, service or anything else. Features a durable, soft grip knob for added comfort. Cam Depth Adjuster Adjusting motor depth is fast and easy with the built-in Cam Depth Adjuster. Simply loosen the quick-lock, adjust the motor shaft length, and re-tighten. The Depth Adjuster makes it possible to quickly change motor depth for varying water conditions. Digital Maximizer Minn Kota's Digital Maximizer technology gives the most run time possible, keeping you on the water longer. By optimizing power draw and reducing damaging heat, Digital Maximizer provides up to 5x the run time of standard motor operations. Tilt / Extended Tiller The extendable tiller makes hand control convenient by adding an additional 6” of reach. Additionally, the handle can tilt up 45 degrees to make operation while standing much easier and more comfortable. Battery Gauge Never wonder how much battery life remains again! With the push of a button, you can instantly see how much battery life remains. Knowing your battery's level allows you to make the best use of your motor's run time and, ultimately, catch more fish.

Designed to operate without catching or snagging, you can venture into the thick stuff without fear of chopping or hacking. Fully Encapsulated Components All electronic control boards are encapsulated with marine-grade urethane for protection. Additionally, all electrical connections are specially sealed with liquid-resistant, heat-shrink tubing for further protection against saltwater and damage. Corrosion Protection Riptide motors are treated with premium-grade alloys to protect them from the corrosive effects of saltwater. Every motor undergoes a thorough initial cleaning process, is then coated with special zinc armored plating, and is finally finished with a durable polyester paint. The end result is a motor that is built to withstand the harshest of saltwater environments. Indestructible Composite Shaft - Guaranteed For Life!

They are guaranteed not to break, corrode or kink, and are the only trolling motor shaft that carries a lifetime guarantee. Super Quiet Operations Catch more fish with super quiet motor operation. Minn Kota's large motor windings dissipate heat and provide cool operations, extended battery performance and longer motor life. An integrated friction reducing bearing system provides quiet operations for stealthy approaches. Two-Year Warranty This motor is backed by Minn Kota's two-year warranty.
