[PSUBS-MAILIST] Minn Kota C2 vs Riptide

[T Novak via Personal_Submersibles]

Thanks, Jon.

 

This is good information regarding the salt water vision.  I will be in fresh water for the near future, but may want to go tidal at some time.  

 

A group purchase sounds good. At this time I am limited to 40 - 45 pound thrust motors. 

 

My local price is for the full on trolling motor that I will part and use only the lower thruster heads as the existing controller still functions. Cabela's and Bass Pro appear to be the same company now.

Supposedly the saltwater version has a longer lasting anode, better paint, and uses stainless steel hardware.  We did a group purchase a few years ago with Northland Marine (I think) and pretty sure I paid $250/each for four saltwater 36vdc RipTide 101 lower units.  This included propeller but not the motor controller or anything else.

 

We could put together another group purchase if there's enough demand.

I don't think there is any real difference with the Rip Tide version other than marketing.
