12ft fishing yak and motor, am I dumb to want the wireless all-in-one thing
I got a 12ft sit-on-top I mostly take on small freshwater lakes, finally looking at slapping a motor on so I'm not paddling back against the wind every time.
I saw this setup where the motor just clamps on and you control it wirelessly instead of a wired pedal that got my attention cause I hate drilling into the hull. But it's clearly first-gen from a company for batteries, not motors, and that makes me nervous. Who services it if it breaks in a year?
Before I drop money anyone actually running something like this on a fishing yak? mainly wanna know it'll push me and gear a few hours, won't die in a breeze, mount won't rattle loose. And is the "complete" unit worth it vs just bolting on a trolling motor Can I fix it myself???
And can't really tell if the all-in-one stuff is the future or a trap for early buyers.
