Nice Kayak, I have the 2017 and love it. The dual steering handles are not new- have been around awhile.

A big old heavy group 24...I get plenty of run time out of it but it would sure be nice to be able to afford a couple of nice lite lithium batteries.

Ah. I'm pretty sure I would be extra tippy if I used a trolling motor with my Adventure

On my Adventure Island without the outriggers I use a PWC battery and I can get about 5 miles out of it...and the battery fits right under the seat...I guess you could connect two together to get more time out of them and still fit them down there.

Don't gots the CT seat unfortunately so if I am to add the motor I'll be sticking the battery in the front hatch.

Too much weight forward and you turn your kayak into a plow. Also increases water over the bow. Get it as close to mid ships as possible
