Ok value but cheap construction |
I've had one of these for about 5 years. Cheap is the word here.
Mine had to have both rocker switches replaced early on (the plastic inside broke so they were "floppy" - unsafe) and the cap on the front of the motor/propeller assembly developed cracks and leaks, it seems it may shrink a little over time and with exposure to sun/water. The waterlogged motor still worked though it was a little slower than before. Unfortunately it looks like there's no easy route to buying replacement parts for it and re-sealing the cracked cap is not likely to be easy.
As far as functionality goes it is very handy to put around on the inflatable, you'll need at least 15Ah of battery per hour of continuous use on a 3-person inflatable. Of course you should at least double that if you want your battery to last. |

Sevylor trolling motor |
|
I find my new Sevylor 12 lbs. thrust motor is a good value for what I paid. A good performer on my 6' rubber raft with two adults and some gear. It's really light weight so packing into backcountry is possible. |

If you Plan on Trolling in an inflatable, this works... however.. |
|
This Motor is good! However... If you buy an inflatable Sevylor boat (Which work great) and plan to use this motor for cruising around, you will be disappointed. On "fast" speed, the motor travels at about the pace of a slow average walk. If you are out using this motor for fishing, this is however about the right pace. One advantage of this motor is it only draws a maximum of 12 amps at the fastest pace. It will run the small accessory batter (another option to buy) for a solid 45 minutes. I bought a Large Everlast battery, which will be able to run the motor for SIX HOURS! For the Price... I would advise spending a little more cash and buying a trolling motor with 24lbs thrust or more |
