Sorry for the old post but did you get much water on the floor with your setup or up thru the drive hold? I am thinking about this Titan 12 or the Titan X 12.5 and just purchased my XI3 to mount on either one of these. Native says that the water on the floor problem has been taken care of. Titan X 12.5 is a little longer and much more heavier though which is why I am on the fence with the Natives.
So the titan 12 is a “wet ride” already. Didn’t seem to get better or worse with the xi3 on the front. I put a seal under the lid of my drive cover, and as long as it’s strapped down, water doesn’t come through. Most of the water that gets in, seems to come up through the rudder. I replaced the gaskets on my rudder and that helped keep the boat relatively dry, however after a long day, there’s always standing water on the floor. I saw that the new 12.5x supposedly fixed that issue like you said, but who knows. Hope they helps. Feel free to ask anything else as well.
I have a WEIZE 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium. Went through the whole season with zero issues. Never died once on me. I store it in a home made battery box just behind my seat. Distributes the weight well with the motor up front. Boats still extremely stable and rides level in the water.
@wolfsbloodny I am glad to hear that motor and battery combo is working great for you on the titan. Do you feel that 100ah is more than enough capacity for an entire day of fishing, or do you feel like you have to baby it a little? My home lake is Clearlake, which I am hoping to make some long runs.
Atta boy!!! Glad to see you’re getting back out on the waters and making things happen. 🤘🏻
Felt really good haha. Needed it more than I even knew
That’s how it always goes haha once I get my kayak we’ll get out on the water for sure!
If your knee is "locking" up, that's a torn or folded meniscus.
I’ve been doing PT and working on strengthening the muscles around my knee. Hasn’t locked up in about 2 weeks. So far so good.
Great video. Looking at getting a Titan 12.5. Are they pretty stable?
So stable. I’m 260 and I have never even come close to tipping it. I stand up and fish it probably more than I sit, and I never feel unstable

Thanks for the reply. This helps a lot. 👍
I also have the titan 12 and lookin to purchase the xi3. What size battery are you running, and where are you placing it.
