"I love this troller. I jump between fresh, brackish, and saltwater and the Riptide 50 is the cat's meow. No fear of oxidation or rust is a tremendous peace of mind and saves time scrubbing it down after every usage. The power saving feature is incredible and has allowed me to travel around for 6-7 hours without fear of losing battery power. I just wish I could hop it up a little to gain a few knots."
