Hi Jeff great videos can't get enough torqeedo footage. It is now spring the flowers are in full bloom and I have patiently been waiting for the next big thing from the teaser at the paddle Sports convention. "Why are we making such a heavy duty bracket" well you've left us hanging long enough spill it!!!! I own a pa 17t. I need more power than the 403 ultralight can you do a video installing the new updated motor and bracket on a Hobie PA 17T.? If you and Morgan from Hobie can team up together and come up with a great detailed step by step video installing the new motor\braket combo it could generate tremendous sales and make my wish come true please and thank you.
RhinoJoe Outdoors April. Some dealers have ordered from a limited number of early shipment motors that should be here sooner. Call your Torqeedo dealer to see when you can preorder.
Can the shaft be removed from the prop/motor? I'm in the process of designing a solar powered autonomous craft and the shaft would need to be turned to 25.4mm vs the stock 30mm. Regards,
K G Try one of the mounts by Innovative Sportsman or Primal. B & C Power Yaks also makes some super nice custom mounts that allow Torqeedo and Power Pole cohabitation.
Drackkor The Radar 135 hits a top speed of 5.4 mph. Hobie Outback is 5.5 mph. Hobie Pro Angler 5.2. Go to Torqeedo Kayak Fishing and watch those videos. I record and display speed and range at each mph on those videos.
Tim Bauserman - Jeff, I am thinking about buying the 403AC for my 2017 Hobie PA 14. The question I have is do I buy now, or would I be better off waiting for what is coming next?
Tim Bauserman Good question. The “what’s next” is likely going to be a 2020 product release. It will work with the components of the 403AC such as the throttle, battery and charger. That’s about as much as I can say about it now. If I didn’t have the 403AC, and knew that something more powerful was coming, I would enjoy the 403AC for a year then assess if an upgrade was worthwhile when the full details were released.
Pat Niccolai We’ve been working with Blue Sky Boatworks to get the Travel 1103 to be an option with the Angler 360. The Travel 1103 wont be out until after the 403A is released, but it won’t be far behind. Add a tiller extension to the Travel 1103, and it’s good to go on boats like the NuCanoe Pursuit, Kaku Kayak Voodoo, Live Watersports L4 Expedition and Blue Sky Boatworks Angler 360.
Kevin Bryant I’ve seen it chop through 1 cm thick pad stems and super fine stringy vegetation. I’m not familiar with that particular species of vegetation.
This will be available in the spring on 2019? I contacted my local Torqeedo dealer and they didn't know about it. Will there be a pre-order directly on torqeedos website?
Matthew Klocek Please let me know which dealer you spoke with. I’ve sent out information to all dealers this week that lets them know the details of the transition. Many have already preordered units, which will be fulfilled in a first come first served manner. Thanks for your comment!
@@MrJeffLittle West Marine 2121 W Mercury Blvd Hampton, VA 23666 The store manager wasnt available, perhaps he has the info. To clarify, I already have a 403C with the ball mount, can the new mount and steering triangle be purchased separately?
Nice video Jeff.
Wish you where at Canoecopia Madison. WI
I just bought one how do I get Xtra prop and pins?
Pins come with a spare prop. www.torqeedo.com/us/en-us/products/accessories/propellers-and-skegs/spare-propeller-v10-p1100-weedless/1972-00.html

Chris Patrick Something is coming, but it’s in no hurry. I wish that I could speed it up!
Very innovative mount. Need to put it on my Jackson Kayak Cuda 12. When will they start getting shipped with the new mount?

Can we get a video with that and micro power pole mounted?

It fits like so many others fit. What no one showed how fast and how long does it last on the water?
Drackkor The Radar 135 hits a top speed of 5.4 mph. Hobie Outback is 5.5 mph. Hobie Pro Angler 5.2. Go to Torqeedo Kayak Fishing and watch those videos. I record and display speed and range at each mph on those videos.
Thanks!
I hope this will fit on a Hobie 17T.

Nice mount, but why did the motor make so much noise when the guy in the kayak took off at the end of the video? Doesn't that scare the fish?
C&L E I run right over striper in 6 feet of water with that motor and they still bite!
will there be a possible option for Torqeedo's 1103 ?

they never mention the price or what size is the battery, is it lithium?
Any idea how that grass cutter/rock guard might handle sargassum?
