Riptide/E-Drive Anode Discontinued
- Reason: Technical Clarification
- Disposition: Discontinue Use
- Affected Part Numbers:2198400, 2198401
- Additional References: None
Explanation:
Beginning in October of 2019, Minn Kota eliminated the sacrificial anode from all of its products. We are confident our saltwater coating and painting process eliminates the need for the anode. Furthermore, due to recent environmental regulations, we can no longer offer the sacrificial anode as an accessory or part.
Future Orders of these two parts will be replaced by kit 2773100 or 2773101 which consists of the standard prop nut and an instruction sheet stating: Minn Kota no longer offers a sacrificial anode. This is due to recent environmental regulations, and the confidence in our saltwater coating and painting process, eliminating the need for the anode.
