5 reviews for Minn Kota Riptide Instinct QUEST w/WR 87″
Mounted the Riptide Instinct QUEST 87″ on my 24′ bay boat fishing offshore out of Tampa. The motor handles heavy current and wind like nothing. Auto-deploy is a game-changer, especially when I’m solo. Smooth, strong, and quiet — exactly what I needed.
Installed this beast on my offshore boat in Corpus Christi. GPS anchor is rock solid, even in 3-foot chop. The 87″ shaft gives me full control in deep water. For what you get, the price was more than fair — definitely worth every cent.
Using this on my 26′ center console down in Galveston. The shaft length is perfect for rough water. Only reason it’s not 5 stars is I had a slight delay with the wireless remote pairing, but once set up, it’s flawless.
I fish offshore wrecks out of Charleston, and this trolling motor is a powerhouse. Quiet, responsive, and the auto stow/deploy works flawlessly. Battery usage is impressively efficient. Couldn’t be happier.
Running it on a 25′ pilothouse near San Diego. It holds position tight, even in wind and swell. Took off one star because of how bulky the mount is, but performance-wise? It’s unmatched.
