You did a great job! Just purchased the same boat and look forward to doing upgrades. Really like how you hooked up your trolling motor. Like you, can't wait to get on the water! Thanks for the tour.
If I go every couple days or so, the single panel maintains the battery just fine. If I try to go every day, I get concerned by the end of the day. Lithium Iron Phosphate is the only way to go.
Congrats on the new Yukon. Start small with the mods and take your time. You won't regret the end result. Be sure to check out my sea trials if you haven't already. This kayak has far exceeded my expectations. Good luck with your project.
I definitely have more mods on here than I ever needed. Winter is coming so I'll be moving it back to the basement to refine what I've learned. After two seasons with this configuration I am ready for and know what needs changing. Either way, I love my Yukon and often take it out without the motor or other accessories attached. There is something to be said about keeping it clean and simple. I hope you enjoy yours. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you. After a couple years, most needed to be rebuilt or changed but it was a fun project and I learned a lot. This year I refined the kayak and picked up an old boat. Let the adventure continue. My goal since moving here has been to learn watercraft. I would love to try out Superior even though the big water still scares me. Four years now and I haven't hit Mille Lacs yet and it's only 20 minutes away. End goal and bucket list item would be to go from Superior out of Duluth to Chicago or maybe one day do America's Great Loop. Not necessarily in a kayak, because I'm starting to catch the olds. Sorry to ramble but your comment inspired. Dug your chip challenge too BTW.
Just today after I was done fishing I was just looking at my kayak and just thinking about how I could upgrade it. I have the same kayak just a different color. I don’t know how I feel about drilling holes and stuff yet. And I know it was probably a lot of work to get that the way you have it. But I hope I can make a set up eventually that’s just as cool.
I read a series of books a while back that's main logic was to focus on the solution instead of the problem. Once you get started, drilling holes won't be the part that makes your thoughts race at night. When I got my kayak, using a paddle was fine but I did want more. I spent the next Minnesota winter in the basement tinkering on weekends and after work. I learned a lot through the mistakes I made but the biggest thing I learned was that if it doesn't work that way, don't be afraid to take it apart and try again. When spring hit, I never looked back. The time, effort and thought were well worth the reward. There are several lakes nearby that are 1000+ acres and they no longer make me feel tired when I look at them.
I just purchased the Teton Pro 116 (aka Yukon Pro) at Dick's. Love your video highlighting some advanced mods made possible for the unit. Thanks a ton! I too have 3D printing capabilities and will definitely employ them for my Kayakong adventures.
Thank you. The entire build was a fantastic experience. I've been taking it out as often as possible over the summer and don't have any regrets. Good luck with your build.
I have practically the same setup on the exact same boat but bike cables for steering is genius. I used stainless steel cable in icemaker tubing...didn't work great. i did install a PWM which quadrupled my battery life though. liked and subbed
I do highly recommend making that change to bicycle cables. :) Glad I was able to give you some inspiration. Currently I'm working on an old boat which has all new challenges. Good luck with your project/adventure.
@@SciStuff Ha ha Same here, Working on a '85 Grumman 14' deep v tinny w/ 25hp Suzuki 2 stroke. Added LED lighting, bimini top, center console with steering, throttle, trailer overhaul. My wife says I prefer the modifying of machines more than the using the "damn" things...😆
Nice setup. I have the same kayak and I now going to do newer mods to it for the steering. I'm using foot peddle now but I'm going to do handle only and just elimate my foot peddles
I wanted the foot pedals to keep my hands free for fishing. But now that you mention it, it would be nice to put a swivel where I mounted the throttle. Adding cables there sure would have been easier. If I ever get my hands on another Yukon, I'm gonna try that. Running electric would still be tricky (without adding the rear hatch) unless I just crate the battery (I kinda like it in the front). Hell, I haven't even tried this setup on the water yet cause the damn lakes are still frozen and already you got me thinking about how to mod the next one. Thanks man ;)
@@SciStuff check out my videos when you have a chance I try to minimize alot of weight and add on. So that's why I want everything inside the kayak so it would look clean .
Thank you. I hope that it inspires you with yours. My kids (using paddles) slow me down and I'm kinda over towing them so another one may be in the future.
Pretty slick setup man. It’s all awesome. From experience though, I can tell you that if you have side scan, you will lose coverage being up inside scupper. It reduces my side scan range to about 30’ so I added some foam and it’s still protected but I get about 70’ now. Liked and subscribed to see how the journey goes 🤙🤙
I have the same kayak. what size is the lid you put on the back. I had the same idea wasn't sure how good it would be but after seeing this I think I will definitely go with what I was thinking
Thank you for the comment. The rear hatch is 6". I measured/cut the hole and did the interior work before fully installing the hatch. I think out of it all, the biggest secret is using those bicycle brake cable sheaths. I got 20' on Amazon for ~$20. Good luck on your project.
It's called TrafficMaster. You can find it with a quick search. It's attached to the deck with industrial velcro on the corner of each square. Water can still flow around it and out the scupper holes and pulling it out for cleaning is a breeze.
The way you have your trolling motor head setup is exactly how I want to do it. What exactly did you do to remove the head and extend the cables? My thought is to cut the shaft then cut and extend the wires, so I can place the head next to my seat like you have it. Please explain your process. I would greatly appreciate it.
I'm using a Newport Vessels 32lbs thrust motor. There are six screws under the bottom of the head. Take those out and the top comes off the head. The six wires that come up the main tube are attached to the regulator. They detach easy enough (mark your wires and where they attached, four go to the motor and two to the battery). Once disconnected you can slide them out of the head assembly. Be sure to leave them sticking out the tube. I then added the PVC tube, new wires to the regulator and made them long enough to stick out the bottom of the PVC. Use good wire management in the head or you will regret it. The rest is just putting it all back together and running wires where you need them. Again, labeling is the most important and test along the way to makes sure you did it right. Good luck with your build, I know you won't regret it, I sure don't.
@@SciStuff Thanks so much for your response. I was thinking about just cutting the head off with like 4” of shaft below it cut away a little more shaft to expose wires, and then extend the wires. Do you think that is possible and bypass taking the head off and apart?
@@thamesford1433 The problem you may encounter is which wire goes where. I would suggest taking the head fully off. Then you can add/extend the wires from there and also get a better idea of how your motor works. If you need to shorten the shaft, I understand but I would always rather disconnect a wire before I cut a shaft. Then maybe cut the shaft.
I was also nervous about this process at first. There are six screws under the bottom of the head. Take those out and the top comes off the head. The six wires that come up the main tube are attached to the regulator. They detach easy enough (mark your wires and where they attached). Once disconnected you can slide them out of the head assembly. Still leave them sticking out the tube. I then added the PVC tube, new wires to the regulator and made them long enough to stick out the bottom of the PVC. Use good wire management in the head or you will regret it. I used tape and even pout an extra screw in through the side to make sure the wires stayed where I put them. The rest is just putting it all back together and running wires where you need them. Again labeling is the most important and testing along the way to makes sure you did it right. Good luck with your build, I know you won't regret it, I sure don't.
After cutting the hole, I sanded down the sharper areas and applied a generous amount of silicone under the hatch lip before screwing it tightly into place.
I have the same kayak and rigged my motor up similar to yours. But I'm curious about the steering with the pedals? How'd you get the wire thru the holes you drilled. From one to the other. I think I'm just gonna run mine on the outside/on top. And can u explain more how you got your foot pedals to move free? Thank you. Love the set up
I used bicycle brake cable sheathing and pushed it through the hole in the front where I was able to grab it from the hatch hole I made in back. I could then feed it up into the back holes. Once in place, sliding cable through the sheathing is easy. I'll post a more detailed video about the steering once I get out of the basement but for now… There are C clips that prevent the pedals from sliding off the rails on the ends closest to the seat. They just clip around the rails and if you slide a standard screwdriver in under the bottom you can pop them off. Then you can slide the pedals off and see how to remove the clips which lock their location.
@@SciStuff way cool. Ya. I already cut a hole in the back to mount my bracket for the motor. So I don't think I will be doing another one. I patched it up and sealed it. Thanks for the quick reply. 🙌🏼
@@trevorkylesthingsarbon1195 I'd still suggest using that bicycle cable sheathing. I got 20' for like $20. If running on the outside, you shouldn't need near as much.
Thank you. It has treated me well the past two years. This year I think I am going to avoid running electric through the hull. I'll keep the steering the way that it is but it's easier to just pop the battery on the back and hook it up to my control box. Video for that coming soon. If and when I get around to it. :)
Yes, I sealed it all the way through and fished it through the interior with a clothes hanger from the back hatch that I cut in. Since this video however I have made a lot of changes. I now just put my battery in the back so when things go awry it is easier to troubleshoot. I posted a short of the initial sea trial earlier this week. Now I am refining it and will keep my battery in my crate. When I get some time here I'll post a longer video of the changes I made wince this video. Thanks for commenting.
How did you get the foot pads to slide? I have the Tamarack pro. I removed the clip but my foot peddles do not slide at all. They can move if I push hard. I used silicone lube but they still wont move easy.
Thank you for the comment. The pedals will be hard to push if the cables are not encased. I ran the cables through bicycle break cable sheathing. You can see more details about this on my other video “Lifetime Yukon Kayak with Foot Steering Trolling Motor Walk Around”. The difference with and without the sheathing is night and day. In that video you can see how smooth it is since I steer it with a single finger.
@@SciStuff on mine even with nothing attached, the pedals have a lot of friction. They just don't slide easy at all. Did you lube them or anything? It looks like the rail is slightly bowed because of the shape of the kayak. You didn't by chance remove the center rivet?
@@curtiseppley3230 I slid the foot peddles fully off the rails then removed that little latch that allows you to lock them in place. I didn't modify the rails or use any lubricants. If yours don't slide freely with the latches removed, it could be a defect with your rails or peddles. You may be able to use a file or sandpaper on the peddles where they hold around the rails to widen any rubbing areas.
It was called YXGOOD 6'' Deck Plate Kit Kayak Deck Hatch. There are a large variety of hatches that would have also worked. I may upgrade to a larger one in the future.
@@jacobmussey3003 I ran them inside the hull from the battery up front. I used a clothes hanger to fish them from front to back. I have other videos on my channel that show this is more detail.
Depending on the manufacturer, it shouldn't be much bigger if any. Be sure to double check the measurements on that hatch before you order one. I can troll around with my 40 all day and haven't run out of power yet.
@@SciStuff ok I don’t plan on trolling just using it to get about a mile and a half into the bayou and back but sometimes there’s current so not sure of what thrust to get also. I’m on some kayak groups on Facebook I will have to do more research thanks for the reply I like the way you rigged it out
@@bloodOntheStep I'm gonna try to hit the upper Mississippi around the end of the month (it's small up here in MN). It will be the first time that I've tried it on a river or in a current. Good luck on your project.
Battery ~12lb (lithium cause lead acid would be ~40lb), Motor ~19lb and the rest of my gear is also right around 20lb max. Weight limit for the Yukon is 350 and I weigh 200 so I've still got room to grow.

Yeah it is a bit much but I only take it on heavy mosquito or hot days. Truth be told, it makes paddling impossible in it's current configuration. Glad I installed that trolling motor. I'll show the updated mount in the near future. ;) -keep fishing
That is an amazing set up, the way you rigged the foot rest to control the trolling motor blew my mind!
Thank you. It has since exceeded my expectations and keeping your hands free makes fishing much easier.
I think this is the cleanest and best Yukon kayak setup I've saw. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks. I'm glad you liked it and hopefully were inspired you.
