    Anyway you can do a video showing the bottom of the kayak. I do a lot of river floats with friends and the water is very shallow at times. We scrape a good bit and I’m worried about the protruding plastic that is protecting the rudder. Im on the fence between the VIBE SHEARWATER 125 and VANHUNKS ELITE PRO ANGLER 13FT KAYAK. Thanks for any info and keep up the good work!

    I picked my Elite Angler Pro from Tampa Saturday 03/03/2024. Where did you get the mount to mount the trolling motor in the fin drive area? I bought a Newport Vessel Kayak Series 55lb thrust.

    In one of your videos I have seen the Newport NK 180 bracket on the rear of the Vanhunks elite pro angler. I have been looking but cannot find any videos of you demoing that motor in operation and bracket installation. Would really like to see that setup running and your honest evaluation.

    Love how excited you are about this setup. I’ve been watching everything you put this Vanhunks through and this is the part I’ve been waiting for. My paddle/pedal days are over so it’s all motors for me. I can’t wait to see you put the Newport Vessels NK180 on it and see how it stacks up. When you said there was a 3hp electric drive coming did you mean Newport Vessels is coming out with one or were you referring to the Torqeedo 1103? Just bought the NK180 but if a 3hp is coming I’ll keep it in the box for now. Also, waiting to see if you take the Vanhunks in saltwater in some chop to see how it does since that’s where I like to fish. Oh, and thanks for the honest reviews. Everyone has opinions but when you review something we get to see it all, bad and good. That is rare and is why I watch you when I’m considering spending my money.

    Will the Vanhunks Elite Pro Angler accept a Newport Vessels NV55 Trolling motor where the pedal drive goes? I bought the E mount from Vanhunks.

    That is cool! Can any type of transom mount motor fit in the adapter or only the VanHunks motor? I'm just wondering how fast a 24v 85lb thrust motor would be.

    • @FloridaFishingRebels

      I tried putting a newport 62lb thrust and didn’t fit down the middle, Im asking my self the same question, what size motor fits on these vanhunks?

    How will you compare the quality of the vanhunks to a lifetime or pelican. I’m looking at the manatee or whale runner

    • @AliexFolgueira
      @AliexFolgueira  Рік тому +1

      pelican makes good kayaks, vanhunks can have issues but i bet they will help you fix those issues no problem, i dont have a lot of experience with lifetime recently

    Is this the Poer Electric motor from Vanhunks? Awesome set up at a great price. Doesn't look like you have a lot of deck room infront of you though.

    Hey bro been following you for a while and truly great for the videos, you know your kayaks. I’m a fishing bro on a budget and want your opinion on a safe peddle drive kayak. What’s your professional advice on getting the best for my buck?
    I’m considering the pelican catch110hd2 or hoodoo? What you think? God bless 🙏🎣💪

  • @adanbautista2623
    @adanbautista2623 Рік тому

    I like the box, but I designed something better myself the box is cool. The only thing I don’t like is that when you’re fishing it gets on the way it’s way too tall. I would like for you to look at my design and give me your honest opinion.

    I've had enough of these motor setups. I'd rather drop some money on a nice paddle or fishing gear. Aliex, I love your videos, but I'm throwing up the white flag. Paddling a scenic lake or river nourishes the soul. Buying an overpriced motor and battery for your kayak does the exact opposite.

      I agree. The setup is ugly. No way you're fishing with that mess on the deck. Maybe its not directed at people who fish though. Im not sure who thats for.

      @@AliexFolgueira Guess I just like having space in the kayak to land a nice fish. Just looked way to cluttered. Maybe it'll be nice for someone who just wants to cruise on a lake or river. I still like your videos. I found them helpful when getting my 120 topwater pdl.
