Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 Trolling Motor with Wireless Remote

The Ultimate Riptide Terrova QUEST. Maximum Shaft Length. Brushless Performance. Built for the Largest Saltwater Boats.

The Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 with a 100-inch shaft is the flagship of the Riptide Terrova QUEST family — the longest shaft, the largest applications, and the most demanding conditions the platform is designed to handle. Whether wired for 24V (90 lb thrust) or 36V (115 lb thrust), it delivers the brushless efficiency, dual-voltage flexibility, and Advanced GPS control that define the QUEST platform, on boats where every other shaft length falls short.

The QUEST platform delivers up to 50% more torque and up to 30% longer runtime than previous-generation brushed motors. Combined with a 100-inch carbon-fiber infused shaft, this motor is purpose-built for the largest boats, highest freeboards, heaviest loads, and the kind of rough coastal conditions where propeller depth is the difference between staying on fish and losing control entirely.

Is This the Right Motor for My Boat?

Choose the...	If...
60" QUEST	You have a medium bay boat with a standard or lower bow height and fish moderate conditions
72" QUEST	You have a larger bay boat or higher bow and regularly fish wind and chop
87" QUEST	You have a high-bow boat or guide boat and fish heavy current and rough coastal conditions
100" QUEST (this model)	You have one of the largest boats in the lineup, very high freeboard, or need maximum shaft length to maintain propeller depth in the most demanding conditions

If you’re unsure which shaft is right for your boat, contact us before ordering. Bow height and fishing conditions matter more than overall boat length.

---

Why Choose a 100-Inch Shaft?

A 100-inch shaft isn’t about getting more thrust — it’s about keeping the propeller submerged and maintaining precise GPS boat control when a shorter shaft could lose depth in rough conditions.

On the largest boats with the highest freeboards, or in the roughest coastal conditions, even an 87-inch shaft can lose propeller depth as the bow rises in chop or swell. When the propeller loses depth, you lose steering authority, Spot-Lock performance, and overall boat control. The 100-inch shaft is designed to prevent that.

Condition	Why 100" Matters
Very high freeboard	Maintains propeller depth that shorter shafts can’t reach
Maximum fishing loads	Keeps prop engaged as the boat sits lower in the water
Heavy chop and offshore swell	Prop stays submerged as the bow rises and falls
Strong tidal current	More consistent thrust and Spot-Lock holding power
Bridge, pass, and reef fishing	Better control in the most current-driven environments

---

QUEST Shaft Comparison

Shaft	Best For
60"	Medium bay boats, lower-to-moderate bow heights, protected and moderate conditions
72"	Larger bay boats, higher bow heights, inshore center consoles, wind and chop
87"	High-bow boats, guide boats, heavy loads, demanding coastal conditions
100" (this model)	Maximum shaft length for the largest boats, highest freeboards, and most demanding conditions

Boat Match Guide

Boat Type	Recommendation
Large Bay Boat (Very High Bow)	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Match
Hybrid Bay Boat	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Match
Inshore Center Console (High Freeboard)	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Match
Guide Boat	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Match
Offshore-Capable Center Console (Coastal Application)	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Match
Bay Boat (Standard Bow)	⭐⭐☆☆☆ Consider 72" or 87" QUEST
Flats Boat	⭐☆☆☆☆ Not Recommended

Dealer Tip: The 100" QUEST is the most specialized motor in the Riptide Terrova QUEST lineup. If you’re comparing the 87" and 100", the decision comes down to freeboard height and conditions. Bigger is not always better — the right shaft depends on your boat and where you fish. Contact us if you’re unsure.

QUEST Platform Features

QUEST Brushless Motor

The QUEST platform uses a brushless motor design that delivers up to 50% more torque and up to 30% longer runtime than previous-generation brushed motors. Brushless motors have fewer moving parts, generate less heat, and maintain consistent performance over more hours on the water.

Dual Voltage — One Motor, Two Configurations

Configuration	Thrust	Batteries Required	Best For
24V	90 lb	2 x 12V in series	Large bay boats, moderate-to-heavy conditions
36V	115 lb	3 x 12V in series	Largest boats, heavy current, most demanding conditions

Start with a 24V setup today and add a third battery to upgrade to 36V in the future — without replacing the motor.

Real-Time Battery Monitoring

Displays remaining battery percentage, estimated time remaining at current speed, and Eco Mode notifications — giving you the information needed to manage your battery system throughout a full day on the water.

Eco Mode

Automatically optimizes motor efficiency to extend battery runtime without sacrificing boat control. Reduces power draw while maintaining your selected speed and GPS functions.

Carbon-Fiber Infused Shaft

Stronger and lighter than the composite shafts used on standard Terrova models. Improved rigidity, reduced flex, and a lifetime guarantee — especially critical on a 100-inch shaft where leverage and flex resistance are paramount.

Advanced GPS with Spot-Lock® with Jog

Spot-Lock® electronically holds your boat’s position using GPS — no anchor required. With 90–115 lb of brushless thrust and a 100-inch shaft, Spot-Lock holds more effectively in stronger wind and current than any shorter QUEST configuration.

Drift Mode

Controls speed and course simultaneously — useful when fishing passes, open bays, or structure in current and wind.

Wireless Remote Control

Complete trolling motor control from anywhere on the boat — speed, steering, Spot-Lock, Eco Mode, and GPS functions at your fingertips.

One-Boat Network Compatible

Integrates with Humminbird fish finders and other One-Boat Network compatible electronics for a fully connected fishing platform.

Built for Saltwater

Corrosion-resistant materials and protective finishes designed for harsh marine environments. Rinse with fresh water after every saltwater trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should choose the 100-inch QUEST instead of the 87-inch?

The 100-inch shaft is the right choice for anglers with very high freeboard, the largest boats in the lineup, or those who fish conditions where even an 87-inch shaft loses propeller depth. Bigger is not always better — the right shaft depends on your boat’s bow height, load, and typical fishing conditions. If you’re unsure whether the 87" or 100" is right for your boat, contact us before ordering.

---

Why choose QUEST over the standard Terrova?

The QUEST platform uses a brushless motor that delivers up to 50% more torque and up to 30% longer runtime than previous-generation brushed motors. It also adds dual-voltage flexibility, real-time battery monitoring, Eco Mode, and a carbon-fiber infused shaft — features not available on the standard Terrova lineup.

---

Can I start with 24V and upgrade to 36V later?

Yes. Because the QUEST motor supports both voltages, you can start with a 24V/90 lb setup and add a third battery to upgrade to 36V/115 lb in the future without replacing the motor.

---

What batteries are required?

For 24V/90 lb: two 12-volt batteries wired in series. For 36V/115 lb: three 12-volt batteries wired in series. We recommend ABYSS lithium battery systems for maximum runtime and reduced weight.

---

Is this motor compatible with Humminbird electronics?

Yes. The QUEST is One-Boat Network compatible and integrates with Humminbird fish finders and other compatible electronics.

---

How does dual voltage work?

The QUEST 90/115 can be configured to run on either a 24V system (2 batteries, 90 lb thrust) or a 36V system (3 batteries, 115 lb thrust). The voltage is determined by how you wire your battery system — the motor itself supports both configurations.

Dealer Insight

The Riptide Terrova QUEST 90/115 (100") is the flagship of the Riptide Terrova QUEST family — and for the right angler, it’s the most capable Terrova-platform motor available.

If you fish one of the largest boats in the lineup, have very high freeboard, or regularly encounter conditions where shorter shafts lose propeller depth, the 100-inch shaft provides the boat control and GPS performance that no shorter configuration can match.

If you’re on the fence between the 87" and 100" shaft, contact us. The right shaft depends on your boat and where you fish — and we’d rather help you choose correctly than have you order the wrong configuration.
