- Hiqmar iSUP/Inflatable Kayak eFIN Test #3 - Aquatec Ottawa -
After my last test with the Hiqmar eFin • Hiqmar iSUP/Inflatable... I was left with only 1 option - swap the charger and recharge the battery with the new charger.
I did exactly that... but did it work!?

Another great vid. Glad you’ve finally got it running right. Great bit of kit. 👍🏼👏🏼
Aye it's pretty good 👍😁
Great review and great hat, Karl! Fingers-crossed the issues are sorted now. I could have done with motorised assist for the last couple of hours of a round 9.5 mile paddle in my Itiwit X100 when travelling upstream from Poole harbour to Abbott's Quay in Wareham with the tide going out last summer. The X100 has it's central fin at the front, and it would be great to see the Hiqmar tested on it, but I doubt it is compatible with the Itiwit. I would still be interested to see it tested on other kayaks though to see how well they go with it.
Stay tuned... I've recently been out in the Chelan with it 👍😊
Oh, and I make the hats myself :D
Hi, just an idea for the efin. If you remove the spokes inside the circular housing around the efin propellor it would stop clogging
reduce the need to keep reversing and extend battery life. what do you think Karl ? Love the channel btw be great to paddle with you but Im too far away
It might help however on the other hand they are there to prevent the prop getting damaged. I think it's a catch 22! 🤷😁
great review Karl, any hints about your big trip next year or is it a secret for the time being?
It's not me organising this one, so I don't want to say too much just yet 😁👍
👍 Interesting how a different battery charger would make a difference. Have you figured out why?
I haven't but apparently there have been a couple of others issued with the same problem 🤷😁
I'd be interested to see if you can correct your straight line by just leaning the kayak, a bit like how you would steer a bike Karl.
Aye it might do. What is weird is so here in the Ottawa in Sport it eased to the right. In the Chelan at the weekend out eased to the left in Drive mode.
River flow and river Bank sides could have something to do with that mate but I'd suspect it would have more to do with either weight distribution or skeg mount being off centre, is the E-fin more stable in either mount?
@@daveholmes9369 it's equally solid in both.
Hi is it just inflatable kayaks that can join the group
No not really, it's just that's how the group started and what we're largely made up of 😊
