My sights are on the PWR 129, really like the upgradability and still paddle-able.

nice to see a Canadian Kayak site on U tube for a change

For me, pedal drive is as far as I go. The fin drives are very easy for me to go all day. I really like the exercise I get for a full day out.

Best of three for moving water application (river) is PWR w/ NK300, NK180 is too "soft" for going/ getting upstream. Front motor and forward sonar applications have the life span of a fruit fly on the rivers (not to mention hull damage due to repetitive impacts).

Works great! I’m getting just north of 5 miles per hour. 13x16 Black Pack for my two 50 amp hour batteries. Transducer mounted thru scupper in a way I can lower for side scan and pull it up for landing and in shallow rivers.

Crescent Shoalie with a NK180 is a great option. Do rivers too.

As a Newport and Crescent dealer in Canada we will certainly be testing a wide variety of models this season with the NK180's. Shoalie is a great yak for a lot of anglers and like to see how the hull works with power too!

I have the old town min kota 106 and I love it. Spot lock would be the only advantage I don’t have.

I have the same and would also like Spot Lock.

this is MrBear the one thing the oldtowm autopilot is lacking is power, the 45 pound thrust is to light in the power department for the size and weight of the kayak.

Unfortunately we didn't discuss power output other than specifying the Autopilot is fixed to the integrated option while there are many options both Front and Rear mount in the Bonafide and Native. We will be getting to a video on comparing the engine options from Motorguide, Newport and E-Propulsion in a future video.

how is the titan x in waves on the great lakes compared to the old town ? and whats the price of the 12 foot titan x

I myself own 2 auto pilot. 120s for me and my wife. But I feel in this category. You should have included the only other kayak that comes with a motor on it already. Is the feel free Dorado

Thanks for your input. Lots of great yaks out there and unfortunately we do not have the Feelfree for comparison.

Does the bonfide has a pedal drive available to add ??

106 MK

But they are being car topped.

none of those will take the market over, old towne and whoever else comes out with less expensive EPDL' that will take over the market, its basically the EBIKE market, xferred to the E kayak market
