Riptide Saltwater Bow Mount Trolling Motors, 55 thru 101 Thrust Saltwater chews up the faint of heart and spits out the pieces. That's why we engineer our Riptide trolling motors so incredibly tough: to give you every advantage against the nasty perils of saltwater. Riptide is simply the toughest, most corrosion-resistant trolling motor ever built - backed by the industry's first three-year warranty. A Lesson in Galvanic Corrosion - Galvanic corrosion is a result of dissimilar metals coming into electrical contact with saltwater. When this occurs, corrosion will attack one of the metal components. The closer two metals are to each other in electrical potential the less the chance of galvanic corrosion. Riptide utilizes the correct proportion of materials (Mild Steel and Aluminum) along with a patented sacrificial zinc anode to protect motor components from galvanic corrosion. Corrosion will attack the zinc anode, protecting the other metallic elements of the motor. Riptide's sacrificial zinc anode is discretely located on the hub of the prop, allowing it to be easily replaced when needed. Further, the anode does not in any way affect the performance of the trolling motor.Advanced Corrosion Protection - Premium grade alloys, including aluminum upper arms, are impervious to rust. Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with a special zinc dichromate armor plating and e-coat epoxy. Fully Encapsulated Electronics - All control boards are fully encapsulated in marine-grade urethane to permanently seal the circuitry from external elements. The urethane forms an impregnable barrier against the destructive forces of saltwater. AutoPilot - Get unparalleled navigational control and the freedom to catch more fish. Point the motor head in the direction you want to go, activate the AutoPilot button and you're ready to go. Keeps your boat trolling on line, even through heavy wind or chop (on select models). Tilt Twist Tiller - The ultimate in quick access and instant response. Puts natural outboard convenience in the palm of your hand, with greater comfort and control.
