STAYING AT THE POINT OF ATTACK IS THE WHOLE POINT

Wind and waves may wail on you, but our saltwater trolling motors silence them. The all-new Riptide Instinct QUEST and updated Riptide Terrova® were engineered to keep you focused on chasing trophy fish – not your own tail. They’re rugged, relentless and ready-made to pair with Humminbird® fish finders. These motors are made to live up to saltwater captain’s standards because nothing should get between you and the way you want to fish. With Minn Kota®, you’re free to fish – on any front.

SEEK AND DEPLOY

Choose between two motors made for the demands of saltwater with two distinctive deployment styles. Riptide Instinct drops in the water automatically with the push of a button while Riptide Terrova’s lever release and fall-away ramps allow for easy deployment.

Justin Leake's First Impressions of Riptide Instinct QUEST

REEL IN REDS RIGHT ON CUE

Our Riptide motors are built for chasing trophy fish. See how Capt. Justin Leake uses his Riptide Instinct QUEST to catch red snapper in the Gulf of Mexico.

OUTFLANK THE FISH’S DEFENSES

You’re here for the hookset, not the headaches. That’s why Minn Kota’s enhanced GPS navigation thwarts Mother Nature’s attempts to knock you off your course. Your trolling motor is your first line of defense, and Riptide Instinct and Riptide Terrova keep you focused on finding the fish and getting them to bite.

DRIFT MODE

Don’t let the elements knock you off course. This all-new mode works like a GPS drift sock, maintaining your desired speed and route while constantly calibrating to combat current and wind. It also includes a reverse function to retrace a drift you just completed.

FOLLOW MODE

Stick to the map. Improved functionality for this popular mode – synced with Humminbird CoastMaster® charts – will keep you tied tightly to your map’s contour lines.

DODGE MODE

Take whatever the ocean throws at you in stride. Jump out of auto-navigation mode and manually steer through choppy water or around obstacles, then resume auto-navigation without resetting your route.

COMMAND WITH A CLICK

Minn Kota’s new remote puts power in the palm of your hand. Command Riptide Instinct and Riptide Terrova with a new lightweight, non-slip grip remote featuring a 2.1" LCD screen. Get instant access to essential controls like Spot-Lock, AutoPilot®, Cruise Control and four programmable One-Boat Network buttons, which can be customized with popular commands like Mark a Waypoint or Deploy/Stow Raptor or Talon shallow water anchors.
