Bixpy Universal Adapter
1The Bixpy Universal Adapter has been designed to fit virtually every kayak or canoe. However,
depending on your vessel’s design, you may have to get more creative and will definitely require
some tools and some DIY skills. Also keep in mind that you will most likely need to drill some
holes into the body of your vessel. Doing some planning will ensure that you don’t make any
mistakes and minimize damage to your vessel.
If you’re installing the Bixpy Jet on a “sit-on” kayak, you may need to install some hatches on
your kayak to gain access to the inside of your kayak for easier installation. These come in a
variety of sizes and shapes and readily available at most marine shops or on-line.
2Do some planning. The picture below illustrates the
complete universal attachment. You will need to find
a good place to attach the RAM Mount (1) and the Bixpy
Support Clamp (2). The further apart they are, the more
stable your motor and setup. Keep in mind, you can
mount the motor off the side of your vessel if symmetrical
installation is not possible.
