How we judge kit
Marine gear is sold on specifications that mean very little once there is wind and chop. These are the questions that decide it.
01
How does it behave loaded?
An empty kayak on flat water tells you nothing. Tracking and stability change completely with gear and a passenger.
02
Is the rating honest?
Thrust, capacity and run time are quoted in ideal conditions. What matters is the number you get in a headwind.
03
What breaks first?
Every piece of kit has one. Knowing it beforehand is worth more than a star rating.
04
Can you fix it yourself?
Parts availability and whether the job needs the boat out of the water.
05
Cost per season
Not sticker price. A cheap battery replaced every year is the expensive one.
