Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 – 24/36V, 90/115 lb, 100" Shaft | Black | Wireless Remote
Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 – 24/36V, 90/115 lb, 100" Shaft | Black | Wireless Remote
Maximum Shaft Length. Premium Black QUEST Brushless Power. Advanced GPS Control.
The Minn Kota Riptide Terrova® QUEST™ 90/115 with 100" shaft and black finish is purpose-built for anglers running large center consoles, offshore-capable bay boats, catamarans, pontoons, and elevated bow platforms where standard shaft lengths aren’t enough—and where appearance matters as much as performance.
This is the same flagship brushless QUEST platform as the white model. The black finish exists for one reason: to match the increasingly popular black hulls, powder-coated T-tops, black rails, and dark marine hardware found on today’s premium saltwater fishing boats.
White or Black? Choosing the Right Finish
| Finish | Best Match |
|---|---|
| White | White hulls, light-colored decks, classic saltwater appearance |
| Black (this motor) | Dark hulls, black powder-coated hardware, modern premium styling |
Both models deliver identical QUEST brushless performance, thrust, GPS features, and shaft length. The choice is purely about appearance and how the motor complements your boat’s finish.
Why Choose the Black Model?
- Matches black powder-coated T-tops, rails, and leaning posts
- Complements dark hull colors and modern boat aesthetics
- Popular on premium center consoles and offshore-capable bay boats
- Same QUEST brushless performance as the white model—different appearance
- Gives your rigging a cohesive, intentional look from bow to stern
Why Choose the 100-Inch Shaft?
The 100" shaft is designed for boats where maintaining propeller depth is exceptionally difficult. It’s the right choice when:
- Your bow height is very high above the waterline
- You regularly fish heavy chop, offshore swell, or strong tidal current
- You run a large center console, catamaran, or multi-deck platform
- Shorter shafts lose propeller bite in your typical fishing conditions
- You need maximum Spot-Lock accuracy in rough open water

24V vs. 36V: Which Configuration Is Right for You?
The QUEST 90/115 runs as either a 24V / 90 lb or 36V / 115 lb system. See our complete voltage guide for a full breakdown.
| Configuration | Best For |
|---|---|
| 24V / 90 lb | Medium-to-large bay boats, lighter center consoles, moderate conditions |
| 36V / 115 lb | Large center consoles, catamarans, heavy boats, rough water, offshore structure |

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the black model different from the white model?
No. The black and white Riptide Terrova QUEST models share the same brushless QUEST platform, thrust options, GPS features, and overall performance. The primary difference is the exterior finish, allowing anglers to choose the appearance that best complements their boat.
Why choose the 100-inch shaft?
The 100" shaft is ideal for very large boats, elevated bow installations, catamarans, and rough-water offshore applications where extra shaft length is needed to keep the propeller submerged and maintain accurate GPS boat control. See our shaft length guide.
Can this motor run on both 24V and 36V?
Yes. The QUEST 90/115 is designed to run as either a 24V / 90 lb system or a 36V / 115 lb system depending on your battery configuration.
What is the advantage of the QUEST brushless platform?
The QUEST brushless motor delivers more torque, quieter operation, greater efficiency, and better long-term durability than traditional brushed trolling motors—especially under heavy load on large boats in demanding conditions.
Does this motor have Spot-Lock?
Yes. Spot-Lock® GPS anchoring—including Spot-Lock with Jog—is standard on the Riptide Terrova QUEST.
