    always use stainless steel hardware. before its to late replace the bolts holding your trolling motor mount down. ascend did not read the instructions on the quick mount install, they installed the 6 bolt retainers to bolt down the mount that goes on the trolling motor. (backwards) i like the procedure you used but i would for sure change the bolts. I just got the same kayak and will be mounting my quick connect tomorrow.

    Do you have a video on how to install a transducer and fish finder using the mount on the bottom? I have the same kayak and can't find anything on installation for these. Appreciate the video and stay safe.

    How do you deploy the motor when out on the water?

    • @aclifffishing
      @aclifffishing  3 года назад

      The kayak came with two ropes. One is supposed to connect to the foot petal and screw don the side of the kayak back towards the the seat. The other rope ties around the shaft so you can guide it down and pull it up. I have not installed them yet but will be making a video. Right now I just walk up to the front and press the pedal and guide it down.

    Hey where did you scoop this yak from? Looking to get one myself and I’ve been on the search maybe you could help a fellow angler out narrow down the source. Also looking forward to the mods and fishing videos you’re about to post with this machine.

      I got a 128x at cabelas last month. It’s not quite as nice as the 133x but it’s what I could get and it’s definitely better than my Lifetime Tamarack Angler 100. That’s not a bad little kayak but I’m too big for it to safely fish from. The Tamarack has potential for my wife. She only weighs 135 lbs. I’m 210. The Tamarack has a capacity of 275. My 128x from Ascend has a 450 lbs capacity. Now I can fish!

    Why did you mounted it at the front instead of the back ?

    • @aclifffishing
      @aclifffishing  3 года назад +1

      This kayak is designed for a bow mounted trolling motor. You can put on on the back but the tolling motor power plug is in the front so it makes it super easy to install and no wiring.

    • @aclifffishing
      @aclifffishing  3 года назад

      @@fullporaport there is a yak power plug in the back of the so you can run a motor of that but then you will need to plug your battery into the yak power system in the compartment. The reason I run the bow mount is bc the battery port, where I have the battery, runs to the front port and I don’t have to use the yak power system. This saves the back port for either a power pole or light etc.

      @@aclifffishing I got the 128x because that’s the biggest kayak I could find. It’s a step down from the 133x. It’s only got the Yak Power system but they didn’t wire it for a trolling motor at all. They mark out where to drill up by the bow but they neglected to build any kind of bow trolling motor mount. The stern has the same mount as the 133x but you have to wire it up yourself. I noticed that they have places to drill, run tubing and then run lines through the tubes to the foot pedals. It’s set up for a rudder or a trolling motor back there but you have to do all the work.
