- The retailer lists this item as non-refundable and asks buyers to confirm fit with them first, so check shaft length against your transom before ordering.
KayakDIY take: I list this for anyone building out a bigger electric boat, but it’s well past kayak territory. For motors that actually fit a kayak, see my best kayak motors guide.
