This is the right size
It may fit in the Pescador pilot 12 hole, but I am not sure.
There is enough room in a large suitcase for it.
It is recommended that you buy the mini 2 Because it was designed to fit the ASP series motors, the prop was made to work on them. It does not have to be the same as long as it is functional and the right size. We cannot offer a 100% accurate answer to your question since we do not know the sizing of other brands of props.

After shortening the shaft on a Hobie Mirage and making a cassette plug out of XPS foam reinforced with sheet metal (Hobie isn't shipping parts because of lockdown) I installed it in my boat. 1. 2. 3. The speed of the high-speed model (18 lb) is about 9mph. Low readings were not recorded. In addition, I also used a 36v LifePO4 battery pack from my ebike along with a DC adapter I used a DC converter, and it worked It is capable of running at high speed for more than four hours with the 500 watt hour pack. I added a waterproof plug that can also be used as a remote to switch on I can only think of one thing that is annoying the prop sometimes stops in horizontal position and won't fit in the opening once the motor has been disconnected. The solution to this problem was to keep a metal ruler handy and slip it beneath the insert so that it is pushed down on the stopped prop, rotating.
In the first place, Sea Eagle has been extremely friendly and helpful to me. Despite losing it on my own (my fault), they sent me a replacement without a problem. I am very happy with the support and am very pleased with It seems that this is the only motor available that can be used with small kayaks, from what I have seen. One of the biggest advantages is the ultralight weight and the fact that a heavy battery of 50 AH is not required. Currently, I am running off of a 35 AH lead acid battery. There is a lot of performance going on. Cruise is a word I would use to describe my boat. A lot faster than I could paddle all the way around the lake Our sprint to the finish line. As fast as I would like to go is 24 pounds of thrust, which was a concern I had. Overkill and heavy would be the case with anything more powerful. The Paddle Power Kayak Motor is recommended if you are looking for a light kayak motor. Be sure to screw the prop on tightly (opposite me) and maybe pick up an extra prop from customer service. It is good to have an extra prop on hand to use if the first one breaks.
In low speed, 9amps are used, so I can use my 35amp battery (lawn tractor size) for almost 4 hours if I sit at low speed. When it is set to the second speed, it uses about 20 amps, so it can run for about 1 1/2 hours. In recent times, I have switched to a 60 amphr battery so I can longer fish. The motor weight is very light 7 pounds) and is easily raised and lowered (6 or 7 indents), just by pushing a button and raising it up with your hand. I am 72 years old and don't care about speed. As a result, I want to be able to cover more distance more easily than paddling all the We've got a solution here. According to my estimation, low speed is roughly equivalent to paddling pace and high speed is around 3 mph or so A calm sea has a speed of 4 mph. Even high speed won't make progress against the wind hence, this is for calm winds and calm waters.
Despite the fact that I expected the motor to arrive a few weeks ago, I was not able to test it until the flooding in South Carolina ended. With my Native Ultimate 14, I was able to mount a scope easily. The kayak is 5' long. The battery I picked up at Walmart for $76 is an Everstart deep cycle marine battery. I measured the weight of the battery on my bathroom scale at 46lbs. I ran for about 3 hours, most of the time full speed, during the first test run in the reservoir (so I didn't have to worry about the tidal currents in the rivers). My phone's GPS showed a full speed of 3 miles per hour. A 5 to 4 ratio is appropriate. We are moving at 5 miles per hour. There was a 2 Mbps low speed. The number of 5 to 3 is incorrect. Wind speeds of 8 to 10 mph were present when this was measured at 5 MPH. In a wide part of a current in a wide part of the river current, my second run was during the slack before and after high tide, not a big issue about 3 hours later. A 5 to 4 ratio is appropriate. The average speed is 5 mph. I ran my third run on the afternoon of my third run. A stretch of 5 miles along the upper Ashley River fell into the 3 to 4 range. In spite of the strong current, your average speed will still be 5 MPH. Fourteen miles offshore was the Atlantic side of Sullivan's Island, in Charleston Harbor, and on the Atlantic side of the island along Charleston Harbor. I ran various speeds and stopped at beaches on the way for a total of about 5 hours, but I spent just under 14 percent of the time at As hoped, I was pleased with the performance of the Watersnake. So far, it has been reliable after several minutes of hooking up and is extremely simple to operate. Approximately 250 pounds when I'm with you. I can paddle at full speed a little faster than the low speed of my paddleboard with a battery 46 lbs plus a cooler and fishing gear. It would be nice to have a fast internet connection, Under ideal conditions, you can go up to 5 mph. Almost constant running of the motor was what I did during these trips so as to see what it would Fishing is not common when you're out there. I have never let the battery drain more than 1/3 of a charge on any run, except the first. By the end of the first run, the battery level was already above 12. I will still paddle, but I can get a better range of motion with the Watersnake, and I won't struggle to paddle home when the fish start biting, because the tides are unlikely to change. Lastly, I would like to point out If your kayak or canoe has a motor, then the state of South Carolina and a few others require it to be titled and registered. At least in South Carolina, it took about 10 minutes and $40 to complete the process.
A great trolling motor for a canoe or kayak, or even a small boat, took it out today for the first time and it sailed along. I have a 15 foot Pelican canoe. This motor only has 18 # of thrust but is very light to carry and is great for a pond or small lake. I'm not sure if it would have the power to operate in a big lake but they do make I think it is a good value at the price.
