Look at One of the Latest "Toys" for Kayak Anglers



As noted by Jay Kumar in his latest BassBlaster, where I happened upon this piece, "Ain't a kayaker but got a friend or two who are... . And if they ain't stoked to learn about this, there must be somethin' wrong with 'em."

The MotorGuide Xi3, 55-lb.-thrust, 36-inch shaft on this rig comes with or without Pinpoint GPS. The lightweight design and SecureStep system of this trolling motor makes it simple to stow and deploy, even in a seated position. Along with its nearly silent operation and wireless remote, it's the perfect addition to any kayak.

Xi3, with available Pinpoint GPS, allows anglers to focus on fishing while taking advantage of GPS functions, such as anchor, heading lock, route record, and more.

In the words of Yak pro Derek Brundl, "It's an absolute game changer...using the Pinpoint GPS anchor mode to hold on a certain piece of structure and pick it apart without having to constantly adjust my boat position has been invaluable to improving my offshore fishing success."

With wireless control out of the box, there's no need for an expensive add-on. And the SecureStep system makes stowing and deploying Xi3 50 percent easier than the competition. You also get best-in-class quiet operation that's up to 40 percent quieter than the leading competitor.

Available at retailers in January, the MSRP is $1,199.99 with GPS, and $739.99 for a non-GPS model. Click on this link for an install/operate video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mS-ZDzp0fUE&feature=youtu.be.
