You steer your watercraft using a compact hand-operated control unit from anywhere in the boat – none of the limitations of having to be tied to a foot pedal's location. Then, once you've established a heading, use the AutoPilot to maintain your course. Your boat will track along the set heading, even in wind. You fish without the constant battle of trying to keep the boat moving in the right direction. These Riptide™ saltwater motors feature seven-layer, saltwater-corrosion protection, super-strong composite shafts and Weedless Wedge™ 2 props that help you slip through fish-hiding cover. They also feature encapsulated electronics and a built-in Digital Maximizer™ for up to five times longer running time per charge along with infinitely variable speed control. The RT 70 SP CoPilot/Auto runs on a 24-volt system and delivers 70 lbs. of thrust. Three-year warranty.
