  • 99% awesome
In use for six months now and so far as upgrading flawlessly. the power is really impressive, more than I expected. Also very well designed and thought out product. you can tell this was designed by someone who actually uses it. The only drawback I will mention is that the spring used To disengage the locking mechanism is too weak. Not sure that that makes sense but if you want to use the motor in reverse There is a mechanism that you tug on And it brings down an arm that then locks it so that the motor won't just Lift up out of the water. when you release But it doesn't. I simply added a couple of fishing weights to helps To do the disengaging and it works perfectly. Don't let this keep you from buying the product It's 99% awesome. ... show more

  • Flawed Design-motor lift arm broke after 2 trips
I was really excited about this motor. I took it out two times and when I went to take it out the third time, I noticed the motor life arm had bent so badly that it snapped part of the steering triangle when it was stowed. This is ridiculous for a $1,200 trolling motor.

  • Works great on a Bonafide XTR130
I have a very large Kayak, Bonafide XTR130, and with two large adults this will push us to 6mph fully loaded. Paired it with a Li-Time branded 36v battery. Only negative is for the tilt on the motor. It's a little flimsy if you want to lift it up for clearance. I will probably add another clamp so that is more secure and see if the aluminum aftermarket steering control from a Torqepeedo fits. ... show more

  • Excellent kayak motor with great trolling speed
I have a couple hard shell kayaks, and I've used a much lower grade motor on my Perception sit in kayak before with pretty decent success. In the end, while it was nice to help out with paddling, letting me troll around the lakes, I found it lacking in power and more trouble than it was worth, so I only ended up using it on rare occasions. Since then I'd been wanting to try a higher power system, and after looking at the specs of this one, I knew I had to give it a shot. Note: I will need to come back and update this review as the 36v battery I've had for some time died, which limited my ability to put this through a longer term use review. Worth noting, the battery failure had nothing to do with the motor, it was just timing. Once I replace it, I'll get some more run time in and update my review. Pros: + Compatible with several different types of batteries. + Lots of power, and can hold a good solid speed for quite some time with the proper battery. + I found it easy to mount, however my kayak had already been setup for a trolling motor before, so be sure to pay attention to your own kayak's mounting options. + Very quiet running. + Can mount it to pretty much anything with a rigid surface. + Has a nice solid build, and excellent features like the throttle and LCD dash. + Brushless motor. Cons: - Not so much a con as something worth noting. If you don't already have a 36v battery, you will need to factor that into your purchase as those can range from $400-$1500+ and will directly impact the amount of power and runtime you get. - Expensive: It cost almost as much as my kayak. That being said, for the power, and what you get, I feel it is worth it. Overall, despite the failure of my battery, I'm quite happy with this drive system. It mounts with little to no effort, especially in my case thanks to prior experience, and it is lightweight and compact enough to not get in the way. Of course, the drive from the motor helps quite a bit on long paddles, and having the ability to either paddle or drop the motor and use the throttle is a luxury that can't be understated, especially if you're an angler. While my use with it got cut short, during my time with it I was convinced fairly quickly just how good the system is, and if it is something you're considering, I feel it is definitely worth trying out. The first time you throttle back you'll know where your money went. ... show more

  • Top speed is pointless
No need for 36v motor they should have left it alone at 24v 180 model top speed is pointless it drains battery so fast!!!

  • Perfect for my Kayak!
A great way to troll around in your kayak. I have used this a half dozen times while on my cabin's lake and it is quite powerful for being such a small device. I go every bit of the 6mph it say you can reach. Installing it is really easy and paper instructions are included if needed. Be aware you will need to add a battery on this purchase. However, it is well worth it to be able to go from one side of the lake to other. A great way to find the hot spots for fishing. ... show more
