Frequently Asked Questions
Why Riptide for a kayak?
If you launch in salt, brackish, or oyster-laden water, you need Riptide protection. The grit-blasted aluminum + powder coat + sealed electronics handle saltwater spray and immersion that destroy regular Kayak Terrova.
Will Spot-Lock hold a kayak in current?
In light current (under 1 knot) yes. In strong current or wind, the 45 lb thrust may not be enough — this is true of all kayak trolling motors. Spot-Lock works best in calmer conditions.
