In this video, we showcase four different ways to motorize the Vibe Shearwater using the Bixpy K-1 Motor. Whether you prefer pedal drive power, rudder steering, a rear-mounted setup, or a portable solution, the Shearwater offers multiple paths to add electric power without major modifications.
Featured Setups
Universal Versa Rudder
Thanks to the Shearwater's built-in 10mm rudder mount, the Universal Versa Rudder installs in seconds—simply insert the rudder pin, attach the steering lines and you're ready to hit the water. Enjoy smooth steering, kickback protection, reverse lock, and quick motor removal in one clean setup.
Power Pole Adapter + Shearwater Plate
The new Shearwater Power Pole Plate allows the Power Pole Adapter to be mounted in the correct position on the kayak. This creates a lightweight, compact, and secure motor mount while keeping your deck open. Add optional Pole Steering for direct control from your seat.
Rod Holder Adapter
Turn an existing rod holder into a motor mount without drilling or permanent modifications. The Rod Holder Adapter provides a flexible setup that can be moved between compatible kayaks while maintaining a clean and functional deck layout.
Mirage Pedal Drive Adapter
For Shearwater owners using a Mirage-style pedal drive, simply remove the pedal drive and replace it with the Bixpy Pedal Drive Adapter and K-1 Motor. This is one of the fastest and simplest ways to add electric power to your kayak.
