Let customers speak for us
from 480 reviewsIt is far beyond my expectations. For the price I was expecting something plastic that I hoped would work. I fitted it to the back of my kayak and it now means I can travel to place I could not reach before. I am a bit elderly so this does not mean too far, just as far as the battery can last and my paddling can last. I would not think this 18lb one would drive a larger boat.
It arrived in about 3 days. I was expecting a light plastic motor but was amazed by the quality. I haven't put it on a boat yet but it runs fine on the bench.
Brilliant lure
Loved the product! Exactly as advertised, really increased my passion for the sport! Would definately purchase again!
