pelican CATCH PWR 100 vs trolling motor 55# minn kota riptide variable speed

[@AliexFolgueira]

Watch the next Catch Power video here OUTBOARD kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJa9k6dog6llotU

[@wyldbill100]

Kinda "late to the party" in watching this video, Aliex, but I was noticing a LOT of propeller cavitation (sucking air from the water's surface). I'd highly recommend that you extend the shaft/ motor about two more inches deeper than what you have in this video. You're losing quite a bit of efficiency when the motor is cavitating like that. Just shopping around for all things kayak and YOUR CHANNEL has been the MOST educational and FUN to watch!! MUCHOS MUCHOS GRACIAS! Stay Safe out there, my friend!

[@AliexFolgueira]

Yes it is a problem

[@ronniepatterson2827]

Looks like Bixby, & especially the Torqueedo motors, have some serious engineering to do, seeing how loud they are compared to the many options of whisper quiet trolling motors available. Not to mention the price differences ! YIKES !

[@AliexFolgueira]

I don't even know if it is possible to remove the noise

[@ronniepatterson2827]

Not exactly positive about the Bixby's noise as ive just hrd it in vids, but that Torqueedo I had a few yrs ago on my Jackson Coosa, was straight up obnoxious the way it whirred & hummed, even on the lowest setting lol. Not exactly ideal for stalking fish in skinny water, to say the least ! Ty for this vid Aliex :)

[@catfishjohn2329]

Hey Aliex. It looks like you were most concerned with getting from point A to point B. Is that correct? What about fishing? Do you consider this build practical for manipulating your position (or spot) while fishing? My biggest pet peeve about kayak fishing is holding my spot and direction. Thanks.

[@AliexFolgueira]

There are several videos I made covering everything from fishing to stability about this boat, check the playlist

[@robertjohnston570]

So what is it like when you stand up with the trolling motor and battery all attached. Does it have good balance when standing up?

[@AliexFolgueira]

super stable even with all that check these two videos, one is me and my son on the boat kzbin.info/www/bejne/fWGbY3usZ5eqoZI the second is me fishing with this setup you saw in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWWXfHVtZtmcnck

[@walte99]

Nice vid but I wonder why Pelican didn't set it up with the ability to do a foot controlled steering.

[@AliexFolgueira]

I was thinking about that and there is not enough room for that to work properly

[@verdellparentaaawink268]

It can be done I could rig this boat very nice with my trolling motor system or any other kayak especially this one

[@R_Brothersfishing]

what goes faster and last longer a bixpy motor or the trolling motor setup? what would you reccomend

[@AliexFolgueira]

the torqeedo is much faster, you even have a 3hp version, check this one this is the 1 hp kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZSVZ4pveLN4rqc

[@R_Brothersfishing]

Aliex Folgueira i just checked it out that’s faster your right i just hate all the cables and what not. The plug and play with the bixpy is the selling point. How long will the bixpy last on the water i wanna pair it with the lightening strike had kayak and go fishing in the bay. Also i always see u with two batteries does hooking up the fish finder to the bixpy battery affect it that much?

[@verdellparentaaawink268]

I watched the video 3 times when I watch the video I am building the electric kayak in my head I am sure I could rig it with cable steering without slider foot rests giving you both hands nice video and a nice boat so much to work with,,just wonder why they didn't put slider foot rests

[@AliexFolgueira]

I think there may not be enough space for the foot rest hands free steering, I should try to rig it up though

[@jordanbanks7955]

Wonder if you could somehow mod a remote control like ipilot trolling motor for the transom,then you can control power and direction from a remote. Maybe there is a bracket that will let you use that bow remote controlled ipilot on the transom

[@AliexFolgueira]

there is an access point in the front, you can easily rig up a plate for a bow mounted remote controlled trolling motor, too bad I don't have one lol

[@ronengland9761]

Alright Aliex! Been waiting to see this for a long time. Did my own mod with the MinKota 45 riptide on a Pelican Catch NXT. Made the transom myself (and it looks it) and used the lithium battery also (half the weight of regular marine ). All based on KZbin videos. It works great and really gives me a smile when I take off. But now this Power 100. so clean. Love the back end, battery case and wiring, and the movable chair. Could of been a 1' longer maybe but 10' is OK. Think it may have been better with the tunnel hull but still looks pretty stable. Does this make it a boyak? Nothings perfect! Love to see it at our next boat show in Houston.

[@AliexFolgueira]

It is so clean, the power boyak! Plug and play, it is super stable too, and paddles like a yak, check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIbSqZJogrufsKs

[@Avos1973]

Lol 👍 I’d mount the motor head between your legs with the twist grip vertical like an airplane flight stick. Use a cable and control horn system to leaver the left / right control. Wouldn’t be difficult at all 😉 eliminates reaching back and then retains space for back storage. I could help you with layout.

[@AliexFolgueira]

much thinking about this setup, to do I have lol

[@naturestrail2296]

How many miles can you go with that 65 ah battery on this boat? This boat still working good? Ever any problems with leaks into the hull needing drained? I had a bad experience with hull leaks on some kayaks in the past.

Still have the boat, works well, that 60ah can go for 7-8 miles max speed If you go half speed you can go for at least 10m

Thanks for the video. Somehow I think you should be going faster with that motor. I know it is wider, but still, I've seen videos of people going 5 mph top speed with a 35 motor on a kayak. Maybe is the prop? I have also seen videos where people replace the prop with RC airplane props for a kayak to increase top speed.
