Funny! I was frustrated with my attempt at making a trolling motor mount. It never occurred to me clamp it sideways to the boat. I might just put one on either side and pull a waterskier! 😉

Does the battery dent or affect the plastic at all? I have a 100 ah deep cycle and with the weight, worried about denting the plastic. Thinking of just putting it on a thing of 1x4 to spread the weight around?

What size pvc pipe is that?

That mount for you action camera where did you get it

Ken did you ever find the box on RUclips rack ? Someone gave me a 12T for free and going to mod it out. Did you ever mount the Engine to the front to see if there were any benefits or back? Thanks

I got the same kayak… wow looks amazing.

Nice..do you find the trolling motor is to far back or is it ok there? Getting ready to do mine. Thanks

My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

Can literally clamp a trolling motor directly to the boat for anyone wondering and not wanting to make a mount .i feel like i haven't found a single video of anyone doing that and an surprised. Done it that way on my ascend and my vibe for years with zero issues. Nothing wrong with the safety and fun of making a mount, but anyone wondering , you can just literally clamp to the boat and go and folds up behind the seat

Hi,one thing I did was went to a 50 ah battery.Only 13 lbs

Hi. Absolutely love everything you did.

Lil jimmy norton is that you?

Marine Outlet here in Temple, Texas has that battery box and sells the xI3 and we will ship nationally.

which charger do you use for mightymax 12v 60Amp Hr battery?

Nice video, like the thought and explanation of each part.

dog barks made it better. Need to add a puppy station

What size PVC?

How do you counteract tilt with the troller bro?

What are the measurements for the trolling motor mounting box please?

Did you use nuts to attach the side handles? If so, how did you get to the inside?

*Very well-made, stable, comfortable **enjoyable.fishing** recommend love that everything fits in bag. Easy to paddle for single person as well, however might be too heavy to carry by one.*

great set up

Where is the video for that box ? I love that idea!

Love your setup! Put the troller on the back though, you won't be sorry!

Hey Ken, just saw your video…my mods mirror your mods pretty good. My question is, how was the balance with your marine battery, trolling motor and your seat focused toward the stern? Not too heavy in the back? I’m curious if you needed to move the battery towards the bow and if you moved your trolling motor to the rear

Where’d you get the frame you used for your motor mount/battery cage?

Any update?

I'm stealing that 4 rod holder idea.

I like how the trolling motor is mounted

Can you offer more details on the trolling motor / battery tie down set up?

Very well thought out and executed... job well done.

Can you provide the dimensions for the trolling motor mount? I’m going to do this on mine.

I have the Endurance C2 45lbs thrust, I’ll smoke you homie 😂

amizing sir you do that converted???

Do you need to build the frame or do you think I could run that clam on the yak itself?

Kayak good👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍😊🛶

where did you buy that aluminum frame that the battery is stored in?

Sorry if missed it but did you install a kill switch for the trolling motor?

How is the balance with the motor weight on one side ?

Hey Ken, love the setup. Question. How much does your trolling motor weigh? I finally got my feel free moken 10 V2, right before xmas. They make a fitted aluminum side transom, which I already purchased, along with my Suzuki 2.5 outboard. I only weigh around 150lbs which is why I wanted a 10ft kayak. My outboard weighs 28lbs, with fuel in the tank, maybe 30lbs total. I was going to get the Minn-kota 30lb thrust. I fish on a 900 acre freshwater lake. I have a heart condition. That is why I needed the motor, but I will also paddle when I jump from spot to spot. I can finally explore lots of open water fishing. Thanks be safe.

when you troll is it hard to turn wide or is it unstable with the side mount like that?

Just wanted to say great job on being creative, excellent problem solving skills, and on being thorough even to the details, as you know it really makes a difference to do things right. You have a good engineering/mechanical mind. Also thanks for making a great video. I can't get my bay boat onto the super shallow flats in TX and it's too far to paddle. You gave me a lot of great ideas for my kayak.

Isn't that too much weight in the back??? You, battery and trolling motor seems a bit too much.

Got a 12 footer I’m getting ready to drop about a nice pile into it gonna make it nice like your video man go get some fish 383

This is a great platform for me to start my DIY additions. I have the Ascend 10T. I see with the way you mounted the trolling motor you can’t easily, or on the fly, pull the motor up from out of the water? Looks like you’d have to reach all the way around the back of your seat to do that. Wondering if you still have it mounted that way or what problems, if any, you ran into with that?

Could you comment the link for the kayak cart ?

Great video. Everyone praises these crazy builds but like you said, nothing beats being able to take it off in seconds

How stable is it for standing? Im 6”2’ 220lbs.

WTF? Where's the mini-fridge and the tv?

Can you pleaseeeee post the dimensions for the trolling motor mount!!!!
