Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 Trolling Motor with Wireless Remote – 24/36V, 90/115 lb Thrust, 100” Shaft

Extreme Shaft Length, Premium QUEST Brushless Power, and Advanced GPS Control for the Largest Saltwater Boats

The Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 with Wireless Remote and 100-inch shaft is purpose-built for anglers running large center consoles, offshore-capable bay boats, catamarans, pontoons, elevated bow applications, and specialty saltwater fishing platforms where standard shaft lengths simply are not enough. Combining Minn Kota’s advanced QUEST brushless motor technology, proven Terrova GPS trolling motor platform, and the flexibility to run either a 24V 90 lb or 36V 115 lb configuration, this is one of the most specialized and capable long-shaft saltwater trolling motors Minn Kota offers.

The 100-inch shaft is the defining feature of this model. It is designed for boats with very high bow heights, tall freeboard, multi-level decks, or anglers who regularly fish rough open water, offshore structure, passes, bridges, heavy chop, tidal current, and swells where propeller depth and shaft stability are critical. On larger boats, a standard 54”, 60”, or even 72” shaft can struggle to keep the prop submerged in demanding conditions. The 100-inch Terrova QUEST is designed to solve that problem. Also available: 87” shaft, 72” shaft, and 60” shaft.

If you need a Minn Kota GPS trolling motor for a big saltwater boat and want premium brushless QUEST performance, Spot-Lock® GPS anchoring, and the flexibility of 24V or 36V operation, the Riptide Terrova QUEST 90/115 100” is built for exactly that mission. See our trolling motor sizing guide to confirm the right model for your boat.

What Makes the QUEST Series Different?

The Riptide Terrova QUEST is part of Minn Kota’s premium QUEST family, engineered for anglers who demand more torque, more efficiency, more durability, and better performance under heavy load than traditional trolling motors can deliver.

QUEST Advantages

✔ Brushless motor efficiency
✔ More torque and smoother power delivery
✔ Quieter operation
✔ Better durability for heavy use
✔ Enhanced performance in wind and current
✔ Designed for larger boats and more demanding fishing conditions

For anglers comparing a standard Terrova or other electric-steer trolling motors to a next-generation brushless system, the QUEST lineup represents a significant step forward in thrust control, long-term durability, and overall efficiency. Also compare the Minn Kota Riptide Instinct Quest for another top-tier GPS option.

Spot-Lock® GPS Anchoring

Spot-Lock is one of the most valuable technologies in modern fishing.

Using advanced GPS positioning, Spot-Lock automatically keeps your boat locked onto a productive fishing location without deploying a traditional anchor.

Why Spot-Lock Changes Everything

✔ Hold position in wind and current
✔ Stay precisely over reefs, wrecks, bridges, docks, and structure
✔ Eliminate constant boat repositioning
✔ Improve casting accuracy
✔ Spend more time fishing and less time operating the boat
✔ Fish offshore structure, current seams, and passes more effectively

For many saltwater anglers, Spot-Lock is the feature that transforms how they fish.

Wireless Remote Control

The included wireless remote gives you complete control of the trolling motor from virtually anywhere onboard.

Functions include:

• Steering control
• Speed adjustments
• Spot-Lock activation
• AutoPilot control
• Propeller operation
• Advanced GPS navigation functions

Whether you’re fishing from the bow, stern, cockpit, upper station, tower, or bridge deck, you stay in complete control of the motor.

Built Specifically for Saltwater

The Riptide Terrova QUEST is engineered for harsh saltwater environments and heavy-duty marine use.

Saltwater-ready features include:

• Advanced corrosion-resistant materials
• Sacrificial anodes
• Powder-coated lower unit
• Marine-grade hardware
• Protected electronics
• Saltwater-rated construction

Whether you fish Tampa Bay, Charlotte Harbor, the Florida Keys, Chesapeake Bay, Texas coastal waters, the Gulf Coast, or open-water nearshore fisheries, the Riptide Terrova QUEST is built for long-term reliability.

Why Choose a 100-Inch Shaft?

The 100-inch shaft is designed for anglers operating very large boats or fishing conditions where maintaining propeller depth is exceptionally difficult.

Benefits of a 100-Inch Shaft

✔ Better propeller depth on boats with very high bow heights
✔ Improved Spot-Lock performance in rough water and offshore swell
✔ Better control on large center consoles, catamarans, and pontoons
✔ Reduced propeller blowout and ventilation
✔ More consistent thrust in heavy chop, strong tidal current, and bridge fishing conditions
✔ Better performance around offshore reefs, wrecks, passes, bridges, and open-water structure
✔ Ideal for elevated bow installations and oversized saltwater fishing platforms

If your trolling motor is mounted high above the waterline or you regularly fish rough open water where shorter shafts lose bite, the 100-inch shaft can make a major difference in real-world boat control and GPS anchoring accuracy. See our shaft length guide for help choosing.

24V vs 36V – Which Setup Is Right for You?

One of the biggest advantages of the Riptide Terrova QUEST 90/115 is the ability to configure the motor for either 24V / 90 lb thrust or 36V / 115 lb thrust.

Choose 24V / 90 lb If:

✔ You run a medium-to-large bay boat, pontoon, or lighter center console
✔ You want strong performance with a lighter battery setup
✔ You fish moderate wind and current
✔ You want to reduce overall system weight and complexity

Choose 36V / 115 lb If:

✔ You run a larger center console, catamaran, or heavy bay boat
✔ You regularly fish heavy wind, offshore chop, or strong tidal current
✔ You want maximum thrust and runtime
✔ You fish bridges, passes, reefs, wrecks, and open water frequently

This flexibility makes the QUEST 90/115 one of the most versatile premium long-shaft trolling motors in Minn Kota’s lineup.

Why Choose a QUEST Brushless Trolling Motor?

Brushless technology brings real-world benefits for anglers who fish hard and expect more from their equipment.

Benefits of Brushless QUEST Power
