I received my new 2023 PP-768 this week. I also ordered it with the Bixpy gravity rudder. Can't wait to finally install it. The PP 768 battery has a warp 13 speed, will run wide open for 2 or more hrs. But speeds 7 to 8 will last more than 24 hrs. Awesome little motor. 🌊 🎣

Awesome mate, great info here and an unreal comp (along with your others) to kick off 2022. I'd put this on my compass to assist with the bigger areas (such as blue rock lake). Rear mounted seems to be the go to still allow for mirage drive usage as you approach a fishing spot. Tight lines chieftain.

A great review, I did stumble across the Bixby a while back when looking into an electric motor for a kayak and thought it was quite expensive but I guess it all makes sense when it includes the battery as well - that's usually the expensive part of a trolling motor setup. I'd throw one of these bad boys on my newly acquired 2nd hand 2019 Compass. It'd definitely help with feeling knackered at the end of a session as you mentioned. I, too, am guilty of smashing some energy drinks on the drive home on the regular 😂

Got my J2 last year and all your points are right on. One additional point…..when I load my PA12, I remove the motor, but the mounting piece that remains on the back handle sticks out and into your gut when you picking up. No way around it. Still love the unit. I use it just like you said……point A to point B…..then pedal around. Great video. Thanks.

@daveregan845 2 жыл бұрын
Great review Byron. It was interesting to look at others who have reviewed the Bixby J2 and compare the differences. The common benefit however seems to be the significant reduction in fatigue at the end of long fishing sessions (like I get at my local freshwater dam or down the south coast). I love the fitness aspect of using my Hobie Outback but what I will say that as I approach 50 my knees feel the fatigue of a long session. I would love to win the Bixby J2 to have on my 2015 Hobie Outback. It would be super valuable in getting me to and from my favourite locations whilst still allowing me to utilise the mirage drive for approaching my spots and doing my drifts. It would require a different installation to accommodate the twist and stow rudder, however I know Bixby have numerous kits to allow for many different applications. By the way, I wish Canberra had a Hobie specialist like the guys at SLH. The local retail experts are unfortunately far less experienced than the guys at SLH.

Hey Byron , terrific review on the Bixby . I would loved to installed this unit on my 2021 Hobie Lynx which will make this boat more nibble and lots of fun . I totally agree on your comment that it a great asset to those longer days fishing and the ease of returning to your launch site . It would great if Bixby could connect to a GPS unit allowing spot fishing or return to the launch area .

Great vid Byron. This would be a game changer for time poor people. I find I never quite get to where I want to fish on the Parra due to poor access options for kayaks. You spend most of your time fighting current and wind. Not sure you can improve the Compas but this would be a great addition to get you from A to B.

Great review 👌. Would put one of these on my Jackson kraken due to it being more of an offshore yak, the peace of mind not having to burn myself out getting back in 😁. Would be interesting to see how it goes on a yak being more sleek and less surface area on water 👌 Other good point is the motor is 32 lb so it's still under the power limit for Victoria with regard to recreational watercraft licence exemption 👍🏻👍🏻👌
