The new Torqeedo “C” Mount Utilizes a 4 molded threaded insert pattern consistent with Power Pole Mounting. Unfortunately the Jackson Kayak Kilroy does not come with this option. I opted to fabricate a custom mounting plate from 1/2″ Starboard then mounting to where the existing handle was located.
If I was to permanently install the mount on the rear of the Kilroy, it would interfere with my car top loading method. To remedy this issue I came up with the idea of utilizing 12″ gear track to slide the mount into a stowed position on loading, then slide out for use. I Drilled the track and countersunk larger holes to allow 1/4 20 bolts to pass through.
The use of Yakattack T bolts & Track Nuts allow quick tightening and loosening of the mount to either stow or retract for use.
The A/C motor install used all of my previous steering. I only had to modify the up/dn line for a longer distance.
