- Ozark Mountain Trading Company in Ozark Missouri gave me an incredible opportunity to take out the NEW TitanX for a day on the water. Jaden hooked us up with a Newport NK180, and we put it to some use also.

Overall after owning 3 previous Titans spread out through the family, this one is my favorite.
The NK 180 was enough to do what I wanted. I was still able to hit over 5mph fully loaded and have plenty of battery at the end of the day.
Steering: Two option here; one is using the rudder and 'straight lining' the motor with a pin that locks it in place. The other is to use the foot pedals provided with the motor. I preferred the straight pin as it gave me the most control at full speed.
Drop in your questions and comments below.
Stay safe and tight lines!

I am really considering getting this Native Titan since its a grand less than the PA 12 . Thanks for making this video!
I have had my Titan X 12.5 for 4 months and love it. Came out of a Oldtown 106MK . As you stated each angler can set it up to meet their needs. i'm 74 and have no problem standing or casting while standing. With the newport 180 it is great for those long runs or going against the wind. do have one issue - catching fish (just kidding) from sunny south Florida, kept your lines tight and wind to your back.
LOL absolutely! Stay safe down there sir and Tight Lines!
thank you for sharing, I'm a potential buyer so this helped
You bet. This is my favorite Titan build so far.
All of those little access ports you were talking about are intended to be where you drill your holes and run your wires inside your kayak. This makes it so you don't have to drill into the hull like we had to do on the titans. You can drill through the one in the rear and run your motor cable in the hull to the battery storage that way it is not on your deck under your crate.
Yes! After I shot that, I got with OMTC and we spent another hour planning out the wiring. Totally correct, this boat makes it easy to access with minimum drilling.
Dude, glad to see ya........ We def gotta link up this year and fish !!!
I agree, we do. I am hitting all of the MO-Yak on sites this year man, I will get with you on them.
Awesome review my brother I just picked this boat up last week I can't wait to use it. Thanks you for pointing out some of the stuff that I wasn't sure about . Stay safe and God bless
Of all the Titans I have owned, this one is my favorite for sure.
Just picked up my 12.5 X model, a couple of weeks ago. There is SO many things I can do with it, including a "cross-bar" for the Garmins. I also went with the NK300 drive (Heck, it's only money! If I kick-the-can before it's paid for, I don't have to worry about payments...!). Lol
The Titan X IS a heavy 'Yak, as it weighs nearly as much as my Titan 10.5 (fully loaded, with the NK180 drive - weighs 201 pounds), so I bought a trailer to haul it around!
Thanks for your "input" on the Titan X, and we'll be looking forward to more reviews.
I ended up with the NK 300. I thought I'd rather have more, than not need it. And yes sir.. I trailer mine too!
I am considering buying this kayak. I weigh 250 lbs and would rig it with a bow mount trolling motor. Would my weight be an issue after the kayak is rigged out.
Not at all. This boat is really well balanced. One thing I might not have hit well in the video was the cuts and groves in the bow. The water comes over and is caught by the grooves intentionally made, shedding the water off to the side and out of the boat. You are going to be comfortable in this.
How would you rig up a 3in1 transducer
what boots do you have?
I use the NRS boots, the 2023 ones. Man I LOVE them!
