You can still paddle, the motor only moves the yak at 2.5-3.0 MPH...if you want to go faster you'll need to paddle, I do. Besides, you want some exercise? Try loading and unloading with the motor/mount/and 70lb battery...I don't think half the people here could pull that off. haha


I still haven't registered mine, and I've run into both Fish and Game and harbor police...nobody gave a shat. The BEST part of having a motor is reverse! Watching my Hobie buddy struggle to go backwards is too much. We fish the bay like crazy so there's a lot of maneuvering around pylons, etc...reverse is worth it's weight in gold.
