I have never had a trolling motor on a kayak before... I took this out on my Pelican Catch 110 and was zipping around the inlets of the Gulf of Mexico. It was awesome and fun, even when the wind and waves started kicking a little bit. My battery lasted on full until I came back in 7 hours later! The battery used is the Newport 12V50Ah Deep Cycle Heavy-Duty Marine Battery, Lightweight & Sealed AGM, Trolling Motor Compatible. I used it most of the time while being out too. The only pain in the butt for me was that I would have to stretch and move to pop the tilt lever to tilt the motor up when the tide was out or going over oyster beds/rocks, etc. What was even worse was getting myself to the back to raise the motor.... I wish someone made that more easier. But the kayak is long, no fault to this product, just not as convenient for me. I did purchase the side mount, but that didn't fit my kayak pole holders. Overall, very happy with this product, had me zipping and the the battery is waterproof, comes with a breaker.

I bought the Newport Vessels 55 lb. trolling motor on 12/2/2019 for my Lifetime Sport Fisher angler kayak. It’s mounted to the kayak using the Lifetime kayak trolling motor mount made specifically for this kayak sold separately. Powered by a 114-amp hour Everstart Maxx deep cycle marine battery, this Newport Vessels trolling motor provides plenty of power, doesn’t consume a lot of watts, and can troll for hours on the slower speed settings (1-3). At speeds 4-5, your battery range goes down considerably, but that’s true of any trolling motor. It’s quite heavy, so it doesn’t feel flimsy. I usually take it out on the bay, and it handles quite well. I also installed a Bullnose rudder to help improve tracking since the Sport Fisher tracks like a battleship. However, I’d trade stability over speed any day of the week. There’s a battery level display on the trolling motor handle itself, but I wouldn’t put too much faith in it. I also have a battery meter on my Minn Kota Power Center battery box. Starting with a fully charged battery, I’ve never run out of juice!After taking it out a total of four times, I noticed that the motor no longer went in reverse! I had to go to Newport Vessels’s website to seek product support. I immediately received an email response asking me to file a warranty claim. Newport Vessel’s customer service and warranty department are second to none. After sending them proof of purchase, pictures of the motor, and a description of the problem, Newport Vessels completely took care of me. This type of confidence in their products and outstanding customer service is rare in today’s market. My faith in Newport Vessels has been restored, and they’ve earned a lifetime customer.

Old Review:I bought this trolling motor for my Field & Stream Shadowcaster 123 kayak,and I really liked it, but just felt it was a little too heavy for installing to the side of the kayak, so I returned it and ended up going with a more installed, transom mount solution instead. I do wish I had bought this motor for my canoe instead of the Watersnake brand that I bought, because this motor doesn't need the shaft cut. Although it may seem a little trivial, I like that this motor comes in grey even though it's saltwater rated (which is typically white).New Review:Okay, so my original kayak trolling motor prematurely died on me, so rather than wasting time and money returning it for warranty service, I decided to buy this Newport Vessels NV Series motor again. As you can see from the pics, I heavily modified it for my kayak mount (there goes that warranty). It's incredibly quiet and very fast. For the first test run I was fishing for ~5 hours, covering about 4 miles with the last 2 of the miles being at full speed returning to the launch. I have two small 35AH batteries in parallel and had 70% charge left when I got home and put the batteries on a charger, so this motor is really light on the juice. Although my initial impression was that it was a little too heavy for a kayak (and I still stand by that opinion for side mounting), it's actually fine on the stern. I have the batteries stowed in bow compartment (which is why I chose two small ones rather than one big one), so it balances out the weight nicely. I did add the Bullnose Rudder to it, and it provides an overall big improvement in tracking and turning. It's also nice to just use it as a rudder to provide a little steering when just drifting. Great motor -- works very well and looks good. I'm probably going to buy the same motor for my canoe and pick up the 36-lb version for other smaller kayak.
