Setup and what you get

How you use it. Set it up at home first, so the first try is not at the ramp with the sun coming up.

The verdict

The Pelican Transom Kayak Motor Mount is a plain motor mount, and for rigging a fishing kayak plain can be the point. No buyer reviews yet, so this Pelican motor mount has to win you over on paper. The catch with the Pelican: whether it fits your exact kayak is for the manual, not the listing, to confirm. We'd pick it if you want a motor mount for rigging a fishing kayak.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the Pelican Transom Kayak Motor Mount goes in your basket, check your exact kayak model: a mount, a cart or a trolley has to fit your hull, your track and your manual, not a similar-looking one.

Before you buy

Your exact kayak

Check the model name of your kayak and the manual before you order: a similar-looking hull is not proof of fit.

The manual first

Read the kayak manual before drilling, mounting or loading anything. A hole in the wrong place is forever.

Your full load

Every accessory adds weight on board. Our capacity planner adds it all up against the stated capacity of your kayak.
