Riptide PowerDrive has been redesigned with new technology and remodelled to handle the workload that goes along with it – giving you a stronger mount and bigger brains in a sleeker package.
Boat positioning becomes automatic with the revolutionary, GPS-powered i-Pilot. Set Spot-Locks, record paths, control speed and steering, and more, all on a redesigned remote that has a 33% larger screen, and the ability to communicate via Bluetooth. New i-Pilot puts more options and easier operation at your fingertips, including reinvented Spot-Lock – the most accurate electronic GPS anchor ever.
*Available on i-Pilot models only
N.B. Will only suit Bluetooth® motors from 2017 onwards.
Bluetooth communication allows new i-Pilot to pair with your smartphone, allowing for easy software updates and quick command of speed, steering, Spot-Lock, high-speed bypass, and Advanced AutoPilot.
*Available on i-Pilot models only
N.B. Will only suit Bluetooth® motors from 2017 onwards.
Riptide PowerDrive’s Deploy-Assist lever lets you get in and out of the water without breaking a sweat. Depress the lever to deploy. And when it’s time to move, it stows easily and securely.
Upgrade your SP i-Pilot motor with the Heading Sensor, which recognises changes in the boat’s heading due to wind and current and communicates with the i-Pilot system to minimise boat swing for a more accurate, stronger hold. The optional heading sensor will also allow the jog mode on your SP motor.
Stay on the water up to five times longer on a single charge. Digital Maximizer controls the draw of power at variable speeds to keep you fishing longer.
