Great job, thanks for your demo.

How is it ?

@@denis-carllambert9232 I love it. At first it seemed less powerful but it actually runs smoother at the lower speeds

where did you get the 7.9 foot boat?

@@jaaebeeee I order it from the Walmart online for 355 I think

l heard that only the very old Minn Kota's are reliable... So, l went with their recommendation of Newport Vessels 55lbs. for less than $170 US on Ama..... enjoy your sailing days 🎊🥳🎉 no matter what you choose.

@@BlueOriginAire Yeah but i do a lot of vertical fishing so i need the variable speed, far as i know only minn kota/motorguide have varispeed.. So far im not very impressed with the minn kota quality, I had to return the first 2 motors cause they ran worse then my 15 year old motorguide.. So im on my 3rd motor now and havent even been out.. atleast i got warranty for 2 years..

Thanks Albert, Let me know how it works out, I've been thinking about buying a pelican raider 10E

@@nitro3899 I will I have a lithium Dacota battery 54 coming too it’s expensive but will give me more run time and lasts for over 10 years also a third of the weight of a 12 volt deep cycle battery comes with a charger too

Ask a precision mechanic for example, they can easy solve your issue ;) Greetz

Drill a hole beside your seat.

The handle only telescopes in and out, there is an adjustment if you want to move the whole trolling motor up and down.

@@nitro3899 ok TY. Some models do, notice it's got open sides, both sides handle base, like its hinged, some pop up tip, or down tip,

Or with how many people you wanna go 5mph..

No. it hooks strait to the battery.

Yes. Completely fine.

Its funny that you ask this question because I am planning to go to the pond today and film a 1 year update. So far I haven't had any problems but I will be checking everything out in my video. Stay tuned.

I just posted my one year update on this trolling motor, hopefully it will help you out. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fq9jaZSWqsy6gXU.html

It should be more than enough.

I don't know of any way to add a foot pedal to this model. I would suggest buying a model that comes with the foot pedal.

I'm around 275 and my boat is 16ft. I would say a 55 on a 10ft boat would give you way more than enough power. I use mine mostly on farm ponds and have never ran out of battery. I just did a one year update on this motor where I answer questions on speed and other things. Here is the link to that video if you would like to take a look. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fq9jaZSWqsy6gXU.html

I've never noticed mine being noisy.

Its just an old 16 ft. jon boat. Not really sure what make it is.

Its 16 ft. and this trolling motor will push it about 3 mph.

@@nitro3899 thanks for the info

It should be enough. I was actually using a 30 pound thrust on this jon boat with no problem before I decided to upgrade.

@@nitro3899 That gives me the much needed confidence to throw it on a little kayak with no issues! Thanks and great review. It helps guys like me trying to make decisions!

My old boat is old and pretty heavy so I would guess it would weigh around 400 pounds.

I have an Everstart 845 mca deep cycle battery from Walmart.

If there is someone out there that owns a traxxis and reads this post maybe they can answer this for you.

I have taxis 33, just bought endurance 40, my boat only 8 feet. 33 was trusty 5 years, and long run, near shore. Used 3 batterie. The brush are short now, needed change. I needed a bit more trust, because tide in narrow channel. Shaft was 30, now 36. I will miss the moving handle, but good new engine to continue historical shore exploration. Also, like your video and finally, a KZfaq min Kota demo...with a life jacket on. Please people, put life jacket to all onboard. Doesn't matter how cute your boat is, when shit happen, it happen...life jacket always on, BEFORE you get onboard. HAVE A FUN BOATING SEASON

I have an Everstart 845 mca deep cycle battery from Walmart. I mainly pond fish so I have never ran out of power.

@@nitro3899 How many ah is it please?

I mainly fish in farm ponds so I'm able to fish all day on one charge.

@@nitro3899 Hey Bro, i got the same question - How Long does your Batterie last? And how Much "Ah" does ur battterie got? I'm Pretty unsure how long a 100Ah Batterie will last so far. Thanks bro ;)

@@Sonnenkind0815 ​ The battery I use is an EverStart Deep Cycle battery from Walmart, it is group size 29DC and has 845 MCA. I use this on a 16 ft. jon boat in farm ponds and have fished pretty much all day and have never ran down the battery.
