FAQs:

Will this mount work for canoes?Hi, The Railblaza Kayak Motor Mount is only designed to work on most kayaks. Installation requires drilling into the hull of your vessel and using fasteners on the underside to to properly secure it. Therefore, this type of installation typically does not work on canoes due to their hull design. For more information on this, you can check out their installation instructions here:https://newportvessels.com/content/Kayak-Motor-Mount-Instructions-227.pdf If you have any other questions or need additional help with anything else, please visit newportvessels.com or give us a call at (866) 721-0002!

55lb trolling motor is not to heavy for the mount?Hi, No it is not. The 55lb trolling motor weighs 23lbs. The Railblaza Motor Mount (when correctly installed) can hold a 2hp gas outboard (roughly 30lbs). Hopefully this helps!

I have a new bk uh 184 9’2” sit on top fishing kayak . what do you recommend for a trolling motor and installation kit ?Hi, Because the top of your kayak is contoured with only a few flat surfaces and limited access to the inside of the hull, it might be difficult to instal the Railblaza Motor Mount. Installation of this mount requires flat surfaces on port and starboard sides and access to the inside of the hull where the bases will be mounted. Therefore, you might want to consider a motor mount that utilizes rod holder tubes instead. As for a motor, we would recommend our 36lb Kayak Series with 24" shaft or 36lb NV Series motor with 30" shaft. To determine the best shaft length, please see our SHAFT LENGTH GUIDE here:https://newportvessels.com/trolling-motor-shaft-length-guide/ Hopefully this helps!
