Dominate the saltwater environment with the Minn Kota Riptide Transom 55 Trolling Motor, engineered for reliable power and precise control. Featuring advanced corrosion protection and Digital Maximizer technology, this motor delivers extended run time and exceptional durability in harsh marine conditions. Upgrade your vessel today for a superior fishing experience.

Key Features:
  • Powerful Performance: Delivers 55 lbs of thrust on a 12V system, providing ample power to navigate currents and heavy vegetation.
  • Optimal Shaft Length: A 42-inch composite shaft offers versatile deployment and robust performance, guaranteed for life against breaking, kinking, or corroding.
  • Extended Battery Life: Digital Maximizer™ technology provides up to five times longer run time on a single charge by drawing only as much power as needed, ensuring more time on the water.
  • Precise Control: The six-inch telescoping tiller offers comfortable, intuitive, and variable speed steering, allowing you to dial in your exact speed with ease.
  • Advanced Corrosion Protection: Riptide® motor housings are grit-blasted, aluminum-coated, and finished with a durable powder coat paint for ultimate protection against oxidation and rust. Fully encapsulated electronics and a sacrificial anode further safeguard against saltwater damage.
  • Secure Mounting: Equipped with a solid 10-position Lever Lock Bracket that features a quick-release lever and reinforced composite material resistant to flexing, warping, and UV damage.
  • Instant Battery Status: A convenient Push-to-Test Battery Meter located on the motor head provides an immediate display of remaining battery life.
  • Weed-Slicing Propeller: The Power Prop (MKP-37) is designed to deliver extra power, helping you push through heavy vegetation to reach prime fishing spots.
  • Cool, Quiet Operation: Engineered with extra-large windings and commutators to dissipate heat, ensuring cooler operation, extended motor life, and a unique bearing system that reduces fish-spooking noise.
  • 2-Year Limited Warranty: Backed by Minn Kota's commitment to quality and durability.
Recommended Pairings:

Optimize your setup with a high-quality deep cycle marine battery, a compatible battery charger, and a Minn Kota circuit breaker for added protection and performance. This motor is ideal for inflatable boats, canoes, rowing boats, and small sailing vessels.
