Minn Kota Riptide PowerDrive 70 Trolling Motor with Micro Remote – 24V, 70 lb, 54" Shaft – 1363585
The Minn Kota Riptide PowerDrive 70 is a powerful, saltwater-ready bow-mount trolling motor designed for anglers who demand reliability, precision control, and corrosion-resistant performance. Delivering 70 pounds of thrust on a 24-volt system, this model provides the strength needed to handle wind, waves, and current while maintaining smooth, quiet operation.
Equipped with a 54-inch composite shaft and a convenient Micro Remote, the Riptide PowerDrive 70 allows anglers to control speed, steering, and key functions from anywhere on the boat—making it ideal for inshore fishing, flats boats, bay boats, and coastal vessels.
Saltwater-Ready Durability
Built specifically for harsh saltwater environments, the Riptide PowerDrive 70 features advanced corrosion protection, including coated electronics, sealed connections, and sacrificial anodes to help prevent galvanic corrosion. The rugged construction ensures long-lasting performance in both saltwater and brackish conditions.
Wireless Micro Remote Control
The included Micro Remote offers intuitive, wireless control of the trolling motor, allowing anglers to adjust speed, steer, and operate key functions without leaving their fishing position. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easy to keep on a lanyard or in a pocket.
PowerDrive Deploy-Assist & Stow System
Minn Kota’s PowerDrive mount makes deploying and stowing the motor fast and effortless. The spring-assisted design reduces strain and allows for smooth one-handed operation, helping anglers get on and off the spot quickly.
Quiet, Efficient Performance
Designed for stealth, the Riptide PowerDrive 70 operates quietly to avoid spooking fish while delivering efficient thrust and longer run times. The indestructible composite shaft flexes on impact and is backed by Minn Kota’s lifetime shaft warranty.
Equipped with Minn Kota’s most-trusted GPS navigation system, this motor does the heavy lifting so you can focus on fishing.
-
Spot-Lock: The industry’s most accurate GPS anchor. It holds your boat on a specific fishing spot with unmatched precision, automatically compensating for current and wind.
-
Drift Mode: Acting like a GPS-driven "drift sock," this mode manages your speed and path against the current, allowing you to maintain a perfect casting angle
-
AutoPilot: Point the motor head where you want to go, and it will automatically keep you on that heading, adjusting for drift.
One-Boat Network Enabled
Out of the box, this motor is ready to communicate with your other onboard tech.
-
Humminbird Integration: Control your motor directly from your Humminbird fish finder screen.
-
One-Boat Network App: Use your smartphone (iOS or Android) to control steering, speed, and Spot-Lock, as well as perform software updates.
Built for the Salt
-
Advanced Corrosion Protection: The lower unit is grit-blasted, coated in aluminum, and finished with a final layer of powder coat paint to stop saltwater oxidization in its tracks.
-
Digital Maximizer: Provides up to 5x longer run time on a single charge by delivering only as much power as you need, preventing energy waste and extending your day on the water.
-
Indestructible Composite Shaft: Guaranteed for life, this shaft is designed to flex on impact rather than kink, break, or corrode.1

Pro-Tip for Installation:
"Since this is a 24V system, ensure your batteries are wired in series. We highly recommend installing a 60-amp circuit breaker (like the Minn Kota MKR-27) to protect the motor's electronics from power surges. Additionally, because the PowerDrive series uses a Deploy-Assist Lever, ensure you have enough clearance on your bow for the motor to swing down without hitting your rub rail or bow lights."
