Universal Rudder Adapter: Motorize Your Kayak

Universal Rudder Adapter: Motorize Your Kayak

One of the simplest, fastest and most efficient ways to use the Bixpy Jet on a kayak is to install it on the rudder. The versatility of our Universal Rudder Adapter allows you to mount the Bixpy Jet on virtually any kayak.

To demonstrate the adaptability of our adapter, our dealer Darren Stock, made this instructional video showing the features of the Bixpy Jet on a Riot kayak. Check it out!

Check out our support page or follow us on social media for more videos showing the installation and performance of the Bixpy Jet on a variety of kayaks and paddleboards.
