If your kayak takes a Micro Anchor Power Pole, this adapter screws on in seconds. Some kayaks need a maker-specific plate, and Hobie Compass and Pro Angler plates can be added as options. It has a quick release, a hinge to lift the motor out of the water and 270 degrees of rotational trim.

KayakDIY take: If your stern is already Power Pole ready, this is about the easiest motor mount you can add. For more options, see my best kayak motors guide.
