Newport NK180PRO Electric Kayak Motor - 1.8 HP Equivalent, 24V Brushless Direct Drive, Extended Range up to 100 Miles, Whisper-Quiet Precision, and Optimized Efficiency

Great motor! Easy to install and fast! No more getting best to a spot!

This is the way to go!!!!!!! Don't hesitate just do it. You will not regret it Absolutely amazing. Moves my Recon 120 completely rigged out at 5 to 6 mph.

Wow... great kayak motor! I have a Nucanoe Unlimited and I can run 5.5 mph in good conditions. I did try it out on it fast moving river and I wished I had the 300 but I won't be putting myself in that fast moving water again. Don't get me wrong it got me back up river but I had to run it at 100% to do it. I have used it around 5 times now and other than the fast water incident it has been perfect.

After installing noticed a clicking sound from the foot ( motor). Should have returned but called Newport and was assured about warranty so continued using. Clicking got worse so contacted for warranty, what a pain. Sent pics and videos as requested and then they wanted more videos. This went on and on. Finally received a new motor ( no clicking) but the process is a huge pain and I have serious doubts about longevity. But it is fun and paired with a 50 amp hour life pro battery is more than enough. Probably should have just got a 30 amp hour and saved some weight. Good luck and tight lines

Bought because fishing in a kayak on salt or big lakes trolling all day gets tiring even in the pdl 120. Works awesome and trolls down to dam near zero or up to 4mph if I needed it. Runs all day on a power queen 24v 50ah amazon battery. Expensive but well worth it if your covering alot of water

I love my Newport motor I installed it with 100 amp hour batteries. I am getting over 70 MI in 3 days running on the open ocean

Great! Fast delivery from Amazon, quality build and works as described.Easy to install.

The tiny cotter pins are difficult to install and will probably get lost on the first outing. The the through hull feature for the power cord does not have a way to secure it to the hull. You’re on your own to fabricate something to work. And then when you get that figured out you’ll need to figure something out to keep dust and debris from getting in the cords ends, like a rubber flap or snap on flap that should have been designed and included. This is my second NK180 and I still feel like I couldn’t be without it on either my Outback or my PA.

Good price. Work v well. Good product. Fix well on my hobie kayak. Able to achieve 8-10kh/hr on calm current
