Dont know if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me atm then you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my brother for the last couple of weeks =)

[@bowenantonio3302]

@Mohammad Maximilian yea, been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :D

[@H-sgracesavedme1711]

You have a video showing you putting that together? Looks solid.

[@KayakQ]

I currently don’t have one yet, but I am in the process of making one. So keep an 👁 out for it!

[@LetsGoFishingSfla]

Looks good, a little busy with all those rod holders though.

[@KayakQ]

Thanks for watching Icy! Everything at this point is just temporary until I can agree to what I really want. Other then that stay tuned for next weeks video where I get to test run it and hook up to some fish!

[@alfredomorales8096]

Hey buddy like the motor mount💪💪. Can you share where did you get the aluminum bar? I have a cuestion on how is the water level with the motor runing? Being a small kayak?

[@KayakQ]

The Aluminum bar I bought from a aluminum shop down here in Miami. The motor level (height) sits just right and I have the stabilizers that help so the weight of the motor doesn’t sink the kayak. Check out my other video to see the final set up and test run. kzbin.info/www/bejne/faLdamRtnZpojKs

[@popaki9484]

Nice setup! Do you have a video of how you built the motor mount? Do you have any issues tracking straight with the side motor?

[@KayakQ]

Thanks! I haven’t really made a video explaining how I made the motor mount parts. That video is coming soon, since I’am constantly changing my set up.

[@k9kayaks]

Follow you on IG didn’t realize I want following you on KZbin . Saw this video on #KayakDIY on FB Very nice set up 👍🎣

[@KayakQ]

Thank you my brother! Yeah I wanted to see if the video helps some one create there own set up. Thanks again. I am always changing my set up.

[@eddsonmartinez4009]

Do you still use that mount or now you mount it to the outrigger?

[@hectorvaldes4032]

Nice setup, what size is the aluminum 2"×6" ?

[@KayakQ]

Thanks! The Aluminum is 2inches(w) x 4inches (H) by 3ft long

[@Andy-P67]

Does it go straight or does it tend to push you left when you accelerate

[@KayakQ]

For me for the most part the rudder and the motor go hand in hand for steering. If you place the motor on the back of the kayak you will have control with the motor. Mounted on the side where I have now I do need the rudder to help the steering. The motor would just spin me in circles as I accelerate.

[@Andy-P67]

@@KayakQ Thanks for the information It will help me out a great deal, I Just subscribed . look forward to future videos

[@jerry-381]

Looks good. I didn't see a link to the video with it on the water.

[@KayakQ]

It will be dropping next Thursday sorry about that...If you can stay tuned.

[@radicalinsanity8763]

How does the kayak balance with the motor?

[@KayakQ]

For the most part a counter balance is needed, but I was able to use my body weight while running the motor so I wouldn’t get an over splash. Other than that it was good -no major issues for me. I would recommend a counter weight for those that need it.

[@sylbean]

Hi thanks for this video but how do you unconter the wheight ?

[@KayakQ]

I have added a counter weight to the main bar on the left to help, but other then that the ama kit helps with the balance.

[@juderoy1473]

What engine is that? The weight of it aswell?

[@KayakQ]

Its 3.5hp outboard motor which weighs about 29lbs Cozyel 3/4/6/8 HP Boat Motor Heavy Duty 2/4 Stroke Outboard Motor Boat Engine W/Water Air Cooling System google this and you can find the specs! Thanks for watching!

[@chucksmith5002]

I have a buddy that has one of them Hangkai 3.5 hp. motors they sound like a peed off bumble bee if I remember right it only weights around 20 lbs.

[@KayakQ]

Awesome! This motor is pretty decent if you take care of it. It weighs close to nothing compared to other motors. I hVe taken this motor a few miles offshore with no issues.
