Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® 55 Trolling Motor w/Wireless Remote - 12V - 55LB - 54" Product Description
Dominate Saltwater Fishing with Unmatched Boat Control
Imagine gliding across choppy bays or open ocean swells, zeroed in on that prime fishing spot without constantly fighting wind, waves, or current. The Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 55 trolling motor transforms chaotic saltwater outings into precise, productive hunts. Designed exclusively for harsh marine environments, this 55-pound thrust powerhouse on a 54-inch shaft pairs relentless power with smart GPS technology, letting you focus on the catch rather than the controls.
Anglers swear by its reliability after countless trips battling redfish in Texas flats or stripers along the Northeast coast. It's not just a motor—it's your secret weapon for staying locked on structure, drifting patterns effortlessly, and deploying with minimal hassle.
Revolutionize Your Positioning with GPS-Powered Features
At the heart of the Riptide Terrova 55 lies a sophisticated GPS system that anticipates your needs. Forget manually holding position—Spot-Lock anchors you virtually with pinpoint accuracy, mimicking a traditional anchor but without the drag or reset frustration. Paired with the included heading sensor, Jog lets you nudge your hold spot up to five feet in any direction, perfect for dialing in over a school that's shifting slightly.
Switch to AutoPilot for hands-free navigation: point the motor head where you want to go, and it maintains course while compensating for crosswinds and tides. Control it all from the intuitive wireless remote's LCD screen or pair with compatible Humminbird units for seamless integration. This setup keeps you on fish longer, turning average days into limits.
Wireless Freedom and Smart Monitoring
Break free from foot pedals with the included wireless remote, offering full command of speed, steering, Spot-Lock, and more from anywhere on deck. A quick button press reveals your Push-to-Test Battery Meter, giving real-time voltage insights to avoid getting stranded mid-battle.
Extend your range further with mobile app compatibility for iOS and Android devices. Fine-tune settings, toggle features, or even update firmware on the fly—ideal for tech-savvy captains customizing for specific species or conditions.
Engineered for Saltwater Endurance
Salt spray and corrosion are no match here. The lower unit undergoes grit-blasting, aluminum undercoating, and marine-grade powder coating for superior protection. The indestructible composite shaft flexes under impacts from logs or rocks yet rebounds perfectly—backed by a lifetime guarantee.
Power through weeds and grass with the Weedless Wedge 2 propeller (MKP-32), its swept-back blades slicing efficiently to save battery and maintain momentum. Running on 12V with a 50-amp max draw, it's efficient for all-day sessions on smaller bay boats or skiffs.
Angler Tips for Peak Performance
- Mounting Mastery: Secure the bolt-on bow mount firmly to handle rough seas; add padding under the composite shaft for extra shock absorption during trailering.
- Battery Strategy: Pair with a deep-cycle marine battery rated for high cranking amps to maximize runtime, especially in headwinds.
- Cleaning Routine: Rinse with fresh water after every saltwater trip to preserve coatings—focus on the lower unit and prop for longevity.
- Fishing Flows: Use Spot-Lock for live bait presentations over reefs; AutoPilot shines for trolling lures along beaches at precise speeds.
- Wind Warriors: Activate Jog frequently in gusty conditions to reposition without full Spot-Lock resets.
