Minn Kota i-Pilot Riptide Saltwater PowerDrive RT55SP
Riptide PowerDrive has been counted on for years by saltwater anglers who want reliable performance with smart boat control features.
So naturally, we just made it better. A tougher, sleeker new mount houses an arsenal of innovative options. Nobody outworks a Riptide.
Features
- Redesigned Mount & Aesthetics - Riptide PowerDrive has been redesigned with new technology, and remodeled to handle the workload that goes along with it giving you a stronger mount and bigger brains in a sleeker package.
- New I-Pilot - Boat positioning becomes automatic with the revolutionary, GPS-powered i-Pilot. Set Spot-Locks, record paths, control speed and steering, and more, all on a redesigned remote that has a 33% larger screen, and the ability to communicate via Bluetooth.
- I-Pilot Phone App - Bluetooth communication allows new i-Pilot to pair with your smartphone, allowing for easy software updates and quick command of speed, steering.
- Deploy-Assist Lever - Riptide PowerDrive’s Deploy-Assist lever lets you get in and out of the water without breaking a sweat. Depress the lever to deploy. And when it’s time to move, it stows easily and securely.
- Optional Heading Sensor - Upgrade your SP i-Pilot motor with the Heading Sensor, which recognises changes in the boat’s heading due to wind and current, and communicates with the i-Pilot system to minimise boat swing for a more accurate, stronger hold. The optional heading sensor will also allow the jog mode on your SP motor.
- Digital Maximizer - Stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge. Digital Maximizer controls the draw of power at variable speeds to keep you fishing longer.
- Push To Test Battery Metre - Get an instant “state of charge” reading at the push of a button.
