I love it, great Engineering job!

Thanks! I recently made a new mount. Video coming soon.

Really cool! I’m thinking a side mount for mine. Just so I can adjust the height easier. I really like the rear mount though because the boat rides better.

[@greatlakezgirl649]

that is awesome work.

[@superioradventures]

Thank you! I have a new mod I’m working on.

[@maxcoatlhunter5578]

Great set up! What kayak is that one? Is that the Ascent?

[@superioradventures]

It’s the tamarack angler pro

Thanks for sharing. Why only use black and red wires? What whait and yellow wires are for? Thanks.

[@superioradventures]

They’re for the factory speed controller.

[@rudytamayo2646]

​​@@superioradventures I wonder if the factory speed controller can be repurposed and mounted on a box next to you, in place of the separately purchased PWM you put in the waterproof case?

[@superioradventures]

@@rudytamayo2646 yes, that would work. I use the PWM because it makes the battery last longer. If I have it on a low setting, it’s drawing less power. With the factory control, it’s pulling the same amount of power on low as it is in high.
