Built for Changing Saltwater Conditions

Move from shallow flats to deeper channels with responsive steering, GPS boat positioning and motor adjustments at the push of a button. Riptide Instinct QUEST pairs brushless power with automated controls to help you manage wind, current and tidal movement while keeping your attention on the fish.

Improved Spot-Lock and Instant Response Steering

Minn Kota describes the improved Spot-Lock as delivering up to a 50% tighter hold to your spot. GPS positioning helps hold over productive water without constant manual motor adjustments, while Instant Response Steering provides immediate response for maneuvering and precise boat positioning.

Intelligent Depth Control

Intelligent Depth Control detects depth changes and alerts you to shallow water. With the required compatible equipment and setup, it can automatically engage Spot-Lock and deploy connected shallow water anchors to help protect your equipment. Confirm fish finder, depth-data and anchor compatibility before planning your system.

Draw and Navigate

Draw a course with your finger on a compatible connected Minn Kota fish finder screen, then let the trolling motor navigate that course. This feature requires a compatible fish finder and the appropriate system connection.

Wireless Connectivity and a Connected Fishing System

Built-in wireless connectivity simplifies integration with compatible Minn Kota equipment. The connected system brings together trolling motors, compatible fish finders, mapping, sonar powered by Humminbird Imaging and shallow water anchors, translating supported sonar and mapping information into boat-positioning functions.

Control options include the included wireless remote, Minn Kota Fishing App and compatible fish finders. Supported stow, deploy and trim functions can also be operated from a compatible foot pedal, sold separately. Feature availability depends on the connected equipment and configuration. This model has no built-in sonar; fish finder connectivity does not mean a sonar transducer is built into the motor. An Ethernet cable is included in the factory box.

QUEST Brushless Performance

The QUEST platform is designed around dual-voltage 24/36V brushless technology, with updated mounts, propellers, drive motors and software. Minn Kota's supplied QUEST series performance claims include 50% more torque and 30% longer run time. Actual performance and run time vary with battery capacity, operating conditions and use.

Automatic Stow, Deploy and Power Trim

Stow or deploy the motor at the push of a button instead of manually lifting it. Power Trim lets you raise or lower the motor as conditions change, using supported controls without reaching down to the motor.

Drift Mode and Advanced GPS Navigation

Drift Mode automatically combines speed and course control to help manage your drift path in wind and current. The Advanced GPS Trolling System also supports Spot-Lock, path recording, speed control and steering, with commands available through the wireless remote's easy-to-read LCD screen. AutoPilot is also supported.

Shallow Water Protection

A clutch system is designed to help protect the motor from accidental bottom strikes. It complements careful operation and appropriate motor depth; it is not a substitute for monitoring shallow-water conditions.

Real-Time Battery Monitoring

Check battery power while the motor is running, including a real-time time-until-empty display. A notification at 20% remaining battery power prompts you to enter Eco Mode, which can reduce current draw to extend battery life. Digital Maximizer is also included.

Composite Shaft and Warranty

The exceptionally durable 60-inch composite shaft carries Minn Kota's lifetime shaft guarantee. The motor includes a two-year limited warranty, extended to a three-year limited warranty with product registration. The lifetime shaft guarantee is separate from the motor's limited warranty and does not mean the entire motor is covered for life.

Choose the Right Shaft and Power System

Select the 60-inch shaft based on your boat's loaded bow-to-water measurement and the conditions you fish, rather than boat length alone. Allow for bow movement in waves and follow Minn Kota's shaft-selection recommendations.

This is a dual-voltage 24/36V motor. Match your battery system, charging equipment and electrical installation to the voltage you plan to use and the manufacturer's installation requirements. Maximum motor amp draw is 60 A; that specification alone is not a complete wiring or circuit-protection recommendation.
