Discover the ultimate upgrade for your kayak fishing adventures with this compact powerhouse designed for precision and ease. Tailored for smaller vessels, its shorter shaft and featherlight build let you navigate tight waters effortlessly, whether you're stalking bass in shallow coves or drifting for walleye at dawn.

Why Kayak Anglers Swear by This Bow Mount Motor
Picture this: You're seated in your kayak, rod in hand, and need to reposition silently without spooking fish. This motor's innovative design shines here—its bow mount setup hugs the front for responsive steering, while the 60-inch shaft keeps it perfectly proportioned for low-profile crafts. Anglers report covering more water with less fatigue, thanks to intuitive controls that feel like an extension of your paddle.
Remanufactured units like this one undergo factory-level refurbishment, replacing wear parts and recalibrating electronics. It's not just cost-effective; it's a smart choice for eco-conscious anglers who value sustainability without sacrificing thrust—70 pounds of it at 24 volts for punching through wind or current.
Standout Features That Set It Apart
- Digital Power Management: Intelligently adjusts power output for maximum efficiency, extending runtime on deep-cycle batteries and preventing overloads during long days on the water.
- SecureStep System: Reduces stowing effort by half compared to traditional lifts—step on the release and it glides up smoothly, even from a kayak seat, minimizing back strain.
- Ultra-Quiet Operation: Runs 40% quieter than rivals, letting you stealthily approach structure without alerting nearby gamefish.
- NMEA 2000 Integration: Seamlessly connects to compatible chartplotters for GPS-guided trolling patterns, spot-lock functionality, and real-time data overlays.
- Wireless Foot Pedal Option: Hands-free control via Bluetooth, with customizable sensitivity for spot-on directional tweaks mid-cast.
Maximizing Performance in Real-World Conditions
For optimal thrust, pair it with dual 12V batteries wired in series. In weedy bays, the weedless prop slices through vegetation, maintaining speed where others bog down. Saltwater-rated components handle corrosive environments, making it versatile for coastal kayak trips too.
Pro tip: Calibrate the compass during setup for accurate heading hold, ensuring it auto-corrects drift from wind or waves. Users love how it integrates with fish finders, auto-tracking waypoints for repeat drifts over honey holes.
Easy Maintenance for Season-Long Reliability
Keep it running smooth with simple rinses after brackish use and annual propeller inspections. The quick-release mount allows tool-free removal for storage or transport in your kayak's hatch. Remanufactured motors often outperform new ones in durability tests, as they've been hand-selected and upgraded.
