Electric Boat & Kayak Motors

What is the best Electric Motor For Boat?

There are several models available for sale for your boat or kayak here at the fishing tackle shop. Specific pounds thrust models exist, and there are models with longer shaft lengths for deep-sided fishing boats. Also, there are bow mount models which come with foot pedal control or remote control. Keep reading below for more key differences and information on which motor is best.

What Size Electric Motor Do I Need For My Boat?

See our handy size guide below. Treat as a simple guide only. You can, of course, go longer in shaft length than suggested in the guide if you desire. Most motors we sell have an adjustable shaft.

Another point to note is the pounds thrust options. Most owners go for the most powerful option available. Although your boat may not need the most powerful, realistically it doesn’t hurt, and it is why 54lb thrust and 65lb thrust make up the majority of our online sales. For Kayaks, it is the 24lb trust that dons as most popular.

Bow Mount Electric Motors for Sale

The bow mount electric motor is usually used on medium to larger vessels. Pulling the boat through the water delivers pinpoint manoeuvrability, allowing you to battle wind and current. You can cast from exactly where you want to cast.

Control options give you the flexibility to fish from wherever you want in the boat. You can choose the easy to use foot controller, which provides you with hands-free operation, or you can go remote control with the handy wrist controller.

Mounting is simple with robust quick-release mounts that screw into the bow. The motors are lightweight and easy to carry and stow. Lightweight construction materials provide all the convenience without compromising on strength and durability.

Weedless propellers deliver optimum performance as the prop does not collect debris. 54 to 65 pounds of variable thrust puts you in control, to cruise, explore and troll right into the strike zone.

The shafts can handle the knocks and bumps, giving you the confidence to motor right into the structure, weed beds, and shallows.

Transom Mount Electric Motors for Sale

The transom mount electric outboard motors are ideal for smaller boats and kayaks. Given that this style of a mounting style clamps on to the transom, there’s no more effortless electric boat motor to install.

For many anglers, the most significant selling feature of a transom mount is the affordability. For around the same price as a decent rod and reel, you can be gliding through the water in complete stealth mode.

Get way up a small tributary and fish places that have never been fished. It’s effortless with a transom mount on your kayak. Trolling is simple, as is battling wind and current. The tiller control delivers direct response makes the transom mount the simplest electric motor to use.

Boat or kayak control has never been simpler. While you can’t operate and move around the boat as with a bow mount, you have the option of connecting an extension handle (to larger 34-65lb models only) that will ensure greater freedom of movement and versatility.

The motors are made from lightweight components and materials ensuring these compact motors are easy to mount, dismount, stow and carry.
