Kayaks with inboard trolling motor.

[rock88]

I'm hoping somebody can help me out.  Several years ago while fishing Lake Fork I used to run into these guys from Lousiana every spring time that fished the same area I did.  They all had these green kayaks that had an inboard trolling motor that they controlled with their feet.  When I first saw them on the water I didn't know how they were moving because you couldn't see the motor and they weren't moving their arms.  When I saw them load up I could see the prop on the underneath side.

I would really like to buy something like that now, but I can't find anything like that online and I don't remember what those kayaks were called.  I was hoping somebody might know what I'm talking about.

This is the only manufacturer that I know that installs a trolling motor with foot controls.

Is it just my computer, or did the bassyaks.com site stop working?  God I hope not.  I was trying to get to their price page because I'm seriously considering their products

There are several videos on utube of various electric powered kayaks, mostly home made. Just type 'electric kayak' into the search panel and you will get them. The Kingfisher had the motor integrated into the boat, where as most of the others found ways to add a motor to their boat.
