Riptide Terrova QUEST (2027) Full Details
Recommended for:
Medium to large saltwater or freshwater Center Console, Deep-V, Pontoon, Fish N' Ski, Bay Boats and general fishing boats.
- When wired for 24v, you'll have 90 lbs of max thrust on tap which provides enough power for boats weighing up to 4,500 lbs.
- When wired for 36v, you'll have 115 lbs of max thrust which provides enough power for boats weighing up to 12,000 lbs.
Please remember, fishing conditions, hull design/shape and intended use all have a significant impact on calculating the appropriate amount of thrust for your boat. For more help determining the right thrust for your boat please refer to our Trolling Motor Thrust Guide.
How It's Unique
The Riptide Terrova QUEST uses Minn Kota's brushless, dual-voltage motor technology to deliver 90 lbs of maximum thrust on 24V or 115 lbs on 36V. Compared with conventional brushed motors, QUEST technology offers greater efficiency, torque and quieter operation.
New for 2027: The 60" and 72" models have a smaller mounting footprint, leaving more usable space on the bow. This is a model-specific improvement; the 87" and 100" versions should not be assumed to share the same compact mount.
The updated Advanced GPS system features improved Spot-Lock (up to a 50% tighter hold), Draw and Navigate, Follow Mode, Drift Mode and Intelligent Depth Control. QUEST also offers instant-response steering and real-time battery monitoring.
The Riptide Terrova QUEST remains an excellent choice for anglers who need higher thrust and longer shafts. For lower-thrust needs, consider the brushed Riptide Terrova models. Learn more about the benefits of brushless trolling motors.

Mounting Details:
The Riptide Terrova QUEST mounts to the bow of your boat. Verify adequate deck space, mounting access and structural support before installation; reinforcement may be needed depending on your boat.
For removable mounting, the 2027 45", 60" and 72" models use the RTA-42 quick-release bracket; the 87" and 100" models use the RTA-83. Confirm the bracket specified for your exact SKU before ordering.
2027 mount update: The 60" and 72" versions have a smaller mounting footprint than the prior generation.
Motor Mount Dimensions:
Mount dimensions vary by shaft length. The 2027 60" and 72" models have a smaller footprint than the 2026 versions. Refer to the current 2027 mounting template for exact measurements.
Mounting Template and Motor Dimensions:
Refer to the current 2027 model installation drawing for footprint and bolt-pattern dimensions. Previous-generation dimension drawings may not apply to the redesigned 60" and 72" mounts.
Motor Voltage and Batteries:
The Riptide Terrova QUEST is a dual voltage (24v/36v) motor. Depending on the thrust requirements of your boat and fishing conditions you can wire this motor for 24v or 36v.
When wired to 2 x 12v deep cycle batteries (24v), the Riptide Terrova QUEST will provide up to 90 lbs max thrust. When wired to 3 x 12v deep cycle batteries (36v), this motor will provide up to 115 lbs max thrust.
The Riptide Terrova QUEST is compatible with Marine grade, Flooded Lead Acid, AGM and Lithium (LiFePO4) batteries (min 50AH rating). For more information on the proper batteries to purchase for your trolling motor, see our Trolling Motor Battery Selection Guide.
Motor Wiring Details:
The Riptide Terrova QUEST can be wired directly to the batteries or it can be used in conjunction with a trolling motor power plug and receptacle for a cleaner, more professional installation. If using a quick release bracket, a plug and receptacle like the Minn Kota MKR-28 will allow you to plug and unplug the motor for easy removal and re-mounting.
To protect your motor from control board damage installing a 60amp circuit breaker is highly recommended.
Shielded, marine grade wiring should be used to connect the motor to the power source (aka batteries!). To determine the appropriate gauge wiring download this circuit breaker and wiring table.
If you are using lead acid or AGM batteries, they must be wired "in series" to create the proper voltage for this motor. For instructions on how to properly wire 12v batteries in series, take a look at our 24v-36v trolling motor wiring diagram.
Power Lead Length:
Confirm power-lead length and terminal configuration for the selected 2027 SKU in the current installation guide before planning the electrical connection.
Pedal Cord Length:
The Riptide Terrova QUEST Foot Pedal has an 18' Cord (Purchased Separately)

Amperage Draw:
Refer to the current Minn Kota 2027 specifications and wiring recommendations for maximum current draw.
Motor Run Time:
Run time depends on battery capacity, motor speed, boat load, current, wind and other conditions. QUEST brushless technology is designed for improved efficiency and longer run time compared with conventional brushed motors. For help estimating run time, see our trolling motor run-time guide.
Stow and Deploy Method:
The Riptide Terrova QUEST has a one hand stow and deploy feature which is similar to a pendulum which reduces the effort required to stow/deploy the motor. A foot lever on the base of the motor unlocks the lift assist mechanism in order stow or deploy.
Motor Steering Method:
The motor is steered via the included Advanced GPS remote control and/or multi-function foot pedal. The Riptide Terrova QUEST can also connect (aka network) to compatible Humminbird fishfinders via an ethernet connection.
