Pros & Cons
Pros
Battery to travel 3. Miles. Pushes intex mariner 4 with ease. Works great for the inflatable boat.
In this case. Truly happy with the combo. Can't beat the price.
This 3 - 5 second shut off everyone is complaining about. Appears to be a safety feature so that you don't burn up the motor.
Cons
It is no longer reliable. The battery meter goes down to half within like 20 seconds of connecting the motor to battery.
Not thrilled with it. Amazon has the nerve of charging me a restocking fee on top of it.
Highlights
Quality
Plenty of power, easy to steer, and light weight.
It has great acceleration and i highly recomend it
5 hours through that kind of load [weeds cause heavy current draw on the battery] and top speed when we weren't in them and a 2... Read More
We made 70% of the return trip with the battery meter on the lowest of its 4 lights, 25% and in the red zone.
Price
Thanks to intex, i have a fully functional motorized boat for a total of $550.
Thank you intex for making an affordable way to get out on the water for a relaxing day of trolling, fishing and fun!
It`s a great value for the price.
Their design is hard to believe for the price.
Shipping
This was purchased for someone else and drop shipped.
I didn't get to use it last year but it came on time.
Packaging/appearance
I came in great packaging and not a scratch on the box.
I opened up the box and hooked it up to my battery and it was dead on arrival.
Competitiveness
Other than that, compared to other brands, i'd say this is the best bang for your buck.
Also, even the the mariner 4 comes with a hand pump we used a coleman blower for inflation/deflation which worked painlessly.

Ive read that these electric motors are cooled by the water so i got a large plastic tub and filled it with water and put the motor down in the water and switched it to low or 1
