  • Here is the best steering I've found for a kayak motor. The Tim Percy Universal Steering system works great for my needs. This steering system allows you to have your motor steering separate from you kayak's rudder steering. I used it on several trips with no problems. If you're interested in getting one tax free, check out Delaware Paddlesports. Here's a link to their site www.delawarepaddlesports.com/....

    I installed the Tim Percy Univeral Steering systems on my fishing yak. It is an absolute game changer. Easy to install, comfortable and silent. Totally changed my game.

      I'm very happy with the steering. I bought a second one to put a Bixpy K-1 on my Outback. Actually my wife claimed my Outback. I think she'll be happy with the steering too.

    If you just loosen your mount attached to the H-rail and slide forward a touch. It would tighten up that cable. Nice set-up!!

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 9 měsíci

      Thanks for pointing that out. I'm planning to make that cables interchangeable some how, so I can switch between the Bixpy and Torqeedo. Thank you. I really like this setup.

  • @bigtater29
    @bigtater29 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I noticed the looseness in the cables. That's probably for clearance so you can unhook your carabiners. But if you loosen your wing nuts and nudge your steering lever forward a little bit, it should tighten up.

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Thank you for the suggestion. It works great as it is. I'll play with it more when I install this on my wife's Outback. I'll show the full install in that video.

    I’m looking to do this with my PA 12. I had the original Tim Percy steering kit for hobie but my screw snapped and ruined my steering crank which I’m having a hard time finding but I did just get a brand new PA 12 so I’d like to go this route for it and my older one when I repair it. I already bought the universal kit but still gotta get the yakgadget rail mount for it. Is it the 8” or the 12” one? Did you upload the full install video of this yet? (I didn’t see it but want to make sure I didn’t overlook it). I just subscribed to your channel and I appreciate the info!!!
    Tight lines brother!

      This works really well for me. It's mounted on the 8" track mount. I'm work on that video again now. Something happened to the edit, so I had to start over again from scratch. I'll post a link the video here after I upload the video. Thank you for the support.

    When you lift or raise your trolling motor out does that stop it from being able to lift the trolling motor out of the water?

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před měsícem +1

      No it does not prevent me from lifting the trolling motor.

  • @briandagebo3666
    @briandagebo3666 Před 7 měsíci +1

    Is the steering mount adjustable along your kayak and is there enough cable included to move it further from the motor?

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 7 měsíci

      Once you cut the cable for your setup, you can't move it unless you extend the cables. You could easily make an extension cable. I had leftover cable when I was done, but I don't recall how much I had left. I could have move it forward.

      The cable comes with the steering kit, but you can buy more off of Amazon. Here's a link to the cable amzn.to/3OxUoMH.

    Will this work with the newport vessels nk300?

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 10 měsíci +1

      The maker of this said it works with the Torqueedo 1103, so I would think it should work with the NK300. He said that you have to slow down when turning.

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 10 měsíci

      I just checked the website and there is an option for the NK300.

    • @jasonstone8222
      @jasonstone8222 Před 10 měsíci

      Thanks Tommy. Appreciate you taking the time to do that. I believe I'm going to go with that on my nk300 and pa 14 set up instead of foot steering. Another question tho. Is it a significant improvement over just steering the motor from a fixed position using a bigger rudder .....rudder steering vs control steering with motor?

    • @TomyTekOutdoors
      @TomyTekOutdoors  Před 10 měsíci +1

      @@jasonstone8222 steering is way better than using the rudder. A friend of mine is getting the foot steering installed on his PA14. I'm hoping to try it when it's done. I personally like this steering. I'll make video showing off his foot steering.
