Kayak Trolling Motor Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 55/MR 36-Inch Bow Mount
Kayak Trolling Motor Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 55/MR with Composite Shaft, GPS Spot-Lock and 36-Inch Bow Mount
Kayak trolling motor Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 55/MR is a 12V electric-steer bow-mount motor designed for controlled freshwater and saltwater kayak positioning. It delivers 55 lb of maximum thrust through a 36-inch indestructible composite shaft and includes a Micro Remote for wireless steering, speed adjustment, and navigation control. The Advanced GPS Trolling System supports Spot-Lock, AutoPilot, recorded paths, and automatic boat-position management through the remote or One-Boat Network App. Spot-Lock uses GPS positioning to hold the kayak over a selected fishing location and reduces the need for repeated manual steering adjustments. This GPS control matters in wind and current because it allows the motor to maintain position while the operator concentrates on fishing and onboard tasks.
Features
- ➤ 55 lb thrust: The 12V motor provides up to 55 lb of thrust for controlled kayak movement and positioning.
- ➤ Advanced GPS control: Set Spot-Lock, record paths, manage speed, control steering, and use AutoPilot from the Micro Remote or One-Boat Network App.
- ➤ Stow and deploy system: Fall-away ramps help guide the motor into the water, while Auto Park automatically orients the lower unit for stowing.
- ➤ Digital Maximizer: Variable-speed power management supplies only the power required at the selected speed and can provide up to five times longer run time on a single battery charge.
- ➤ Weedless Wedge 2 prop: Swept-back flared blades help move through vegetation without battery-draining chopping and hacking.
- ➤ Composite shaft: The 36-inch indestructible composite shaft is guaranteed for life by Minn Kota.
- ➤ Network compatibility: One-Boat Network support enables connection with select Humminbird fish finders and compatible shallow-water anchors.
This kayak trolling motor is suited to controlled fishing passes, stationary casting, and route management in freshwater or coastal environments. On the sheltered channels near the Matsalu coastline in Estonia, the 36-inch shaft and 55 lb thrust provide a practical configuration for bow-mounted kayak control. When wind or current pushes the kayak away from a fishing position, GPS Spot-Lock automatically adjusts motor output and steering to maintain the selected location. The variable-speed system and Digital Maximizer help conserve the 12V battery during extended periods of slow trolling or position holding.
