The ultimate tool for kayak fishermen – or any paddler who wants to keep
moving while taking a rest.
This is how
we define superior technology for kayakers:
• Weight of 15 lbs, that is of course including the battery
• Motor power equivalent to 1 HP gasoline outboard
• Top speed around 9 km/h, faster than any trolling motor on
the market
• Range at slow speed (e.g. 4 km/h) up to 30 km
• Fully waterproof system
• GPS based calculation of remaining range
• Mountable to most rigid hull kayaks.
Mounting: Can be mounted on most rigid-hull kayaks
with stainless steel cavity dowel pins.
Steering: Steering can be locked, after which kayak
is steered with the paddle or the rudder. This results in a
larger radius of turn. Alternatively, the motor can be
connected to the rudder or the steering system of the boat,
which makes it very maneuverable (e.g. for fi shing).
Watertightness: All motor components are watertight,
protected against complete immersion.
Safety: The motor shuts off when the magnetic key on
the remote throttle control is removed. Therefore, for
safety reasons, the magnetic key should be attached to the
wrist or the life vest. If the kayak capsizes, the motor
shuts off automatically to avoid possible injury.
Battery charge time: When fully discharged, the
charge time with the charger supplied is approximately 8
hours.
Lithium-manganese battery life expectancy: Charge
cycles are not the main factor affecting the service life of
the lithium-manganese battery. The battery does not have a
memory-effect. Generally, a loss of capacity of 4% per year
can be assumed. Ageing is accelerated if the battery is
exposed to high temperatures for long periods and if it is
stored fully charged for long periods.
Therefore, the battery can be used in very hot conditions,
but should be removed from the sun and stored in a cool
place when not used. If it is stored for a longer period of
time, its charge status should be about 50%. If these
instructions are followed, your battery will have a life
expectancy of some 6-10 years.
Integrated battery specifications: The integrated battery
has a capacity of 230 Wh, i.e. 8 Ah at 28.8 V..
