Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why is a sacrificial anode included on Riptide models?
The sacrificial zinc anode protects the motor's metallic components from galvanic corrosion in saltwater by corroding itself first, effectively shielding the motor's structure.
2. Can I use this motor on a fiberglass tender?
Absolutely. The 36-inch shaft and 10-position Lever Lock Bracket make it ideal for tenders with standard transom heights, ensuring the motor stays securely mounted and the prop remains submerged.
