Trolling Motor 24lb Thrust Electric Trolling Motor and Fixed Motor Bar - Watersnake

Recommended for Osprey, NextGen 09, NextGen 10, NextGen 1+1 Kayaks

The Watersnake ASP T24 Transom Mount Electric Trolling Motor motor provides 33 percent more thrust than the 18 lbs sucker, yet is still extremely lightweight and retains the same lower unit diameter as the 18 lbs suckers. Jarvis Walker have also added a new transom bracket to the 24 lbs motor which makes it more rigid and adds to the overall efficiency. All Watersnake Asp motors feature a high or low speed control, forward or reverse switch, a stow away handle and two-blade propeller. The T-24 is suitable for use in freshwater and saltwater.


Watersnake ASP T24 Transom Mount Electric Trolling Motor Features:

  • 24lbs Maximum Thrust
  • 12-Volt Motor Amp draw 9 -20 amp at 12vdc
  • 2 Speeds Hi and Low
  • Forward and Reverse control
  • Heavy Duty Nylon Transom Bracket Mount
  • 2-Blade Weedless Propeller
  • Tiller Handle
  • 24-Inch Stainless Steel Propeller Shaft
  • Encapsulated Electric Circuits & Connections
  • Fresh or Saltwater Use
  • Designed to mount behind the seat of our fishing kayaks using the mounting motor bar groove

This Motor Mount Bar is designed for use with Electric Trolling Motors with a maximum thrust of up to 50lb, any use by a motor with a greater power rating then 50lb thrust may cause a critical failure of the mounting bar, and subsequent damage or loss of both the mounting bar and motor.

PLEASE NOTE: Do check your state/local Marine (boat) license requirement to operate canoe/kayak with a trolling motor prior to purchasing.

FAQ

Which motor should I get for my kayak?
When choosing a motor there are a few things you need to think about:
Budget - Budget is the biggest factor when choosing a motor as you need to think about the battery and mounting kit as well.
Battery charge - The bigger motors require more charge and therefore need a larger battery.
Size of your kayak - The smaller the kayak the less poundage you will need in your motor.
Please check the below chart for the motor recommendations per kayak.

 

Which battery do you recommend?
Which battery we would recommend would depend on the size of your motor. As the motor gets bigger you will need a bigger battery. Please check the chart below for average run times for the batteries.

 

Do I need a license?
Please check local laws for up to date advice for running a motor on a kayak.

Do I need to do any maintenance on my motor?
Yes, regular maintenance is required to keep the motor running well.

  • At the end of the day, wipe the motor down with a damp cloth .
  • Never leave the motor submerged in salt water when the boat is moored. Always check the propeller is clear of line or weed. Clean behind the propeller after every use. Check for fishing lines, weeds, or other debris. Any debris wrapped around the prop will cause a loss in power.
  • Regularly check all nuts, bolts, and screws and physically check all hardware is tightened securely.
  • Lubricate all moving parts.
  • Clean terminal connections regularly and check for frayed wires, loose or corroded connections. Clean terminals with a wire brush and replace any frayed wires.
  • Lack of maintenance may cause excessive heat and loss of power.
  • Be sure to choose a well ventilated and dry location when storing the motor for long periods.
  • Never leave the motor outside, as this may cause damage to the magnet of the driving unit.
  • Please ensure that the motor is thoroughly washed even a small amount of salt left will rust the motor over time and is not covered under warranty.
  • We recommend using a product such as salt attack to ensure that no rust forms.
    • Salt attack can be found here: https://k2f.com.au/s/ckP

 

What is the OWE pressure?
The OWE pressure is the current battery charge level.


Which motor mount should I use?
For our Kayaks2Fish kayaks we have a range of motor mounting accessories.
Found here: https://k2f.com.au/s/ckQ


Can I use a motor with a set of outriggers?
You are able to mount a motor onto a set of outriggers using a motor mounting block.
The motor mounting block is installed by bolting a nylon block directly onto the outrigger bars giving a transom mount motor somewhere to grab onto.
They can be found here: https://k2f.com.au/s/ckV


How fast do they go?
Typically a trolling motor will get you around 4-5 km/h.
This of course will depend on the poundage of motor and water conditions.


How do I mount a trolling motor onto a motor bar?
We have a great video on how to install the motor bar here: https://k2f.com.au/s/ckS


Can the motor go forward and backwards?
Yes, our trolling motors have both forward and reverse gears.


Can the battery be charged by a solar panel?
It does depend on the battery but with a special charge controller it can be charged with a solar panel.


Can I mount the motor where the pedals go?
For the NextGen 11 and 11.5 We have designed a motor mount to fit in and replace the pedals.
It can be found here: https://k2f.com.au/s/ckT


Can I mount two motors, one on each side of the kayak?
While it is possible to run two motors at once we do not recommend this as it is no more efficient and a DIY bracket would need to be made.


Can the hand controller be extended?
In the Haswing and K2F models the tiller can be extended.


Can I power the motor and fish finder from the same battery?
You can power a motor and a fish finder from the same battery; you will just need to install a regulator between the battery and fish finder.
