How long is the motor shaft?

How many speeds does it have?

Troubleshooting

Motor fails to start

Check the battery connections for corrosion and ensure the 12V source is fully charged.

Excessive vibration during operation

Inspect the propeller for debris or damage, and ensure it is tightened correctly to the shaft.

Steering feels too loose or stiff

Adjust the steering resistance screw on the motor mount until you achieve your preferred tension.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight (3.6kg) for easy transport
  • Quiet operation ideal for fishing
  • Compatible with modern lithium batteries
  • Highly durable composite shaft construction
  • Adjustable immersion depth and steering resistance

Cons

  • Limited to a 600kg total boat weight capacity
  • 25 lbs of thrust may struggle in strong currents
  • Limited gear range (2 forward/2 reverse)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure peak performance, connect the motor to a reliable `12V` power source. When mounting the motor, adjust the immersion depth to ensure the propeller is fully submerged but remains clear of shallow-water debris. The steering resistance can be tightened or loosened using the integrated tension screw located on the mount. For maintenance, rinse the motor with fresh water after every use in salt or brackish water to prevent salt buildup. Store in a dry, cool location and check the propeller periodically for fishing line tangles or damage to ensure smooth rotation.
