Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the 42-inch shaft length suitable for my boat?
The 42" shaft is perfect for shallow-draft boats like flats skiffs or smaller bay boats where the bow sits relatively close to the waterline.
2. Can I upgrade this motor to i-Pilot GPS?
No, the Maxxum Riptide is a purely manual-steer (cable/tiller) series. For GPS features like Spot-Lock, you would need to look at the Riptide Terrova or Riptide PowerDrive series.
