Whether you're maneuvering through tight spots or maintaining a stable position for the perfect catch, this 24V motor with 80lb thrust and a 52" shaft delivers reliability and efficiency in saltwater environments.
Precision Maneuverability
Experience unmatched control with the Riptide Maxxum’s accurate bait presentation and meticulous speed management. Designed to keep you in the optimal position, this trolling motor ensures you can focus on what matters most – catching fish.
Durable Riptide SM Mount
Built to withstand the toughest conditions, the Riptide SM Mount is tournament-tested and resistant to corrosion. Its rugged construction guarantees flawless performance, while the secure stowage prevents any movement, flexing, or vibrating during operation.
Bowguard 360° Protection
Our Bowguard 360°™ feature safeguards your trolling motor and boat by automatically breaking away upon impact from any angle and resetting itself seamlessly. This ensures uninterrupted fishing and adds an extra layer of protection against potential damage.
Advanced Depth and Tilt Control
The Quick-Lock Cam Depth Adjuster allows you to effortlessly change the motor’s depth, ensuring it stays precisely where you need it. Additionally, the Tilt/Extend Tiller offers up to a 45° tilt and a 6" extension, providing versatile control tailored to your fishing style.
Smart Battery Management
- Push-to-Test Battery Gauge: Instantly view the motor’s state of charge with an easy-to-read display.
- Digital Maximizer™: Optimizes power usage to extend battery life and reduce heat, allowing you to stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge.
Efficient Propeller Design
The Weedless Wedge™ 2 Propeller pushes through weeds and thick vegetation without draining the battery. Its swept-back, flared blades ensure consistent and reliable performance, making it ideal for navigating challenging waterways.
Unmatched Corrosion Protection
Constructed with premium-grade marine alloys and aluminum upper arms, the Riptide Maxxum is impervious to saltwater corrosion. Each metal component undergoes a rigorous multi-step cleaning process, followed by anodizing or zinc dichromate armor plating, and is finished with a durable 5-mil TGIC polyester powder coat paint for ultimate protection.
Fully Encapsulated Electronics
All electronic components are fully encapsulated in marine-grade urethane, providing a watertight barrier against saltwater. Additionally, electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing, ensuring the durability and longevity of the motor’s circuitry.
Protective Sacrificial Anode
To combat galvanic corrosion, the Riptide Maxxum features a sacrificial zinc anode, a composite shaft, and balanced materials with similar electrical potentials. This combination effectively protects the motor from the destructive forces of saltwater.
Indestructible Composite Shaft
Our composite shaft is designed to be stronger than steel, offering exceptional flexibility without the risk of breaking, kinking, or corroding. This robust construction is backed by a lifetime guarantee, ensuring long-term reliability.

The Riptide Maxxum RT/80/SM/BG is supported by Minn Kota's comprehensive two-year warranty, providing peace of mind with your purchase.
