Transom Motor Features
Transom Mount with Steering Handle Navigation - for Installing into Power Pole Insert
Easy installation transom mount kits that are dependable and will fit kayak with direct integration for Power Pole systems. Transom Mount trolling motors have been engineered to be installed directly into the Power Pole insert with four stainless screws provided, with no modification to kayak. No unsightly wires, just two flexible cables: one to the remote control box and one to the battery terminals. The motor and shaft are low in profile and compact in size making it easy for removal and storage. Power Pole Sold Separately.
Tilting Feature Allows the Tilting of Motor
We added a remote tilting feature to tilt the motor while sitting in your kayak, which assists in clearing obstacles seen and unseen, at no additional costs.  Since all transom mounts tend to trail lower than the keel of the kayak, in addition to the installation of the Power Pole, the tilting range is limited due the pole.
Telescoping Steering Handle for Easy of Navigation
Our system allows the kayak to steer using the telescoping handle. The steering handle is adjustable to meet the different kayak lengths.  No altering of cables or kayak.  The transom mounts are made from durable polypropylene composite for marine application, aluminum and stainless steel hardware.  We provide stainless steel fasteners to prevent rust. 
Fresh & Saltwater Trolling Motors, 46 lbs, 55 lbs Thrust of Power Available
We offer several models for fresh water and salt water use, and the Remote Controllers are IP54 and Trolling Motors are IP64: Splash Proof, Not Submersible 
*Speeds: 5 Speeds Forward / 3 Speeds Reverse, Three Blade Propeller
The motors have a selectors switch, 1-5 speeds forward and 3 reverse. The three blade machete propeller is included with 55lbs trolling motors. The two blade machete propeller are included with 46lbs trolling motors. The machete propeller allows for more torque to push the kayak forward in choppy waters or windy conditions, in addition, to cut through weeds and debris with minimal fouling.
Understanding the Difference Between Conventional Motors and Variable Speed Motors - Read Below
​Conventional Trolling Motors are the most commonly used motor for boating and kayaking. They are cost affective and are equipped with 5 forward / 2 reverse speeds. They are primarily designed to propel you quickly to your desired destination or fishing hole, and then reposition your boat or kayak when currents or wind blow you off course.  
Understanding Conventional Speeds:
- 1st and 2nd speeds are designed for “short bursts” only, not to exceed 15 minutes intervals at a time. "Not for trolling", as it will damage these two speeds.  
- 3rd speed is for covering larger areas, traveling and mostly getting around while conserving battery.  
- 4th speed is for traveling longer distances faster.
- 5th speed is for when speed is required, such as a change in the weather, current, chop waters or an emergency; getting to safety or shore quickly.
Battery Compatibility:  Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries.  Conventional trolling motors are  Not compatible  with Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4 batteries   
                      
Variable Speed Trolling Motors are one of the most improved technology today. Boaters and kayakers are gravitating to trolling motors with variable speeds due to their many benefits.
Benefits of Variable Speed Include:
- Infinite Speed Range of "0-100 speed forward and reverse", which allows for trolling at very low speeds for hours without affecting any speeds of the motor. 
- A Micro Processer aka (Pulse Width Modulator) to increase battery range 3 to 4 times, allowing for hours of continuous trolling.
- Controlled Amperage provides steady trolling in currents and wind while conserving battery at 95% efficiency.
- Integrated Electronic Board System senses over and undercharge of voltage, eliminates voltage spikes, 95% efficiency in power and torque.
- Soft start: no spooking of fish while trolling and lighter in weight than conventional trolling motors,
​Battery Compatible:  Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4, Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries.
Lithium Iron - LiFeP04 Compatible Trolling Motors - For LiFeP04 Battery Use​
These motors are designed to be used with LiFeP04 battery and built with an intergraded circuit board which regulates the voltage and allows speed adjustments in fractional increments, from 1/4 to 5 mph. This motor includes heavy gauged wire, auto reset fuse, lithium-ion plug, which handles 60 to 200 amp LiFePO4 batteries.
