RV and Boat Enthusiasts, Meet the Newest RV Compatible Water Toy

Many RVers enjoy boating and some go to great lengths to bring their watercraft along. The most popular are the inflatables and the fold-up porta-bote. You see a few kayaks strapped on top of a towed vehicle but you have to paddle those. Now you can enjoy the power of a jet boat as the Mokai moves you at a top speed of 15 miles per hour. Below is the jet nozzle and the intake. This propulsion configuration allows you to move through very shallow water, shoot rapids and do a host of things that conventional propuslion will not accomplish. I encourage you boat lovers to check out the video on this web site.
MOKAI This little jewel only weighs 100 pounds and can be easily stowed on top of a car or truck rack. Once you are at the river or lake you put the boat on shore, ad the Honda 6 horse power motor, get in and away you go. The gas tank holds three gallons and is advertised to last up to 8 hours. Steering is accomplished with a motorcycle type throttle which also serves as the left and right control by moving it forward or backward. The Mokai fits neatly in the RV lifestyle because of its portability and low profile, storable motor. You don’t need to figure out where to store that awkward outboard motor, because this motor is the size of a lawnmower engine and easily fits in RV storage compartments. Jim Twamley

  • Okay Jim, this sounds great but you don't say and don't show what kinds of boats you can fit this on and your website link does not work and only takes me to a blog page. I would really like to know more about it, what it fits on, etc. As a teaser, your article really works, LOL ~desertratdan

  • Actually, this is a motorized kayak rather than an inflatable. 11 feet 8 inches long and 100 lbs without the engine.
