Omg!! We too have a 16ft canoe and have bought a 50lb motor with a 200ah lithium iron battery.. out on the river now as I write this(currently pulled over fishing) and also have my blue whippet with me and she loves it! Great video btw 🙂

@@Whippetiggy This is great to hear! Such a good combination using a canoe with an electric motor. Also whippets are the best aren't they

@@MrDesmostylus we’ve yet to try out the motor as the battery was late to be delivered (came today) so we had to paddle.. yes whippets are definitely the best dogs!! She loves the canoe! Her first trip down the river was two days on top of a kayak with a makeshift platform for her bed 😂 What kind of speed do you get? What thrust is your motor?
@MrDesmostylusАй бұрын
@@Whippetiggy I get around 3 to 4 miles an hour roughly. That's on the highest speed setting. I'm not sure what thrust it has. It was the cheapest Chinese one so wouldn't believe the specs anyway. I traveled 7 miles on one charge yesterday which I thought was impressive

I've had the same set up for a couple of years, had plenty of use out of the motor. I use it on an inflatable tender too. Only prob I've had is its a little temperamental going from speed 4 to 5, easily sorted with a little wiggle. Propeller chops through weeds etc pretty well avoiding snags.

Greyhound? Whippet? I could never get my Borzoi to be still enough for such an adventure. Thank you for sharing.

He's a whippet. He's not a massive fan of the canoe to be honest, sight hounds and water don't really mix too well. Thanks for watching

Very nice installation. I did similar with my folding Mycanoe. What river is that? The footage of the morning mist on the water is wonderful.

Hows that trolling motor holding up? Hangkai 65L? Can't find many reviews on it.

Yeah that's the one. It's actually really good. I've not had a problem with it so far. I haven't used it since the end of last summer though. I'm very happy with it

Any chance you could share specs on that motor rig? I had a friend just give me a 160k and this is what I’m hoping to do!
