How to Easily Motorize Your Atoll Paddle Board with Bixpy Canada
The Atoll Paddle Board is known for its stability, durability, and easy-going performance. It’s a great choice for Canadian paddlers who want a dependable board for relaxed cruising, fitness paddling, or light fishing. Its lightweight inflatable design makes it easy to transport and store, while its shape delivers a smooth, predictable glide on calm lakes, rivers, and sheltered coastal waters.
Because of this balance between portability and performance, the Atoll pairs perfectly with a compact electric motor. Adding a Bixpy K-1 Motor gives your board extra range and better control without changing how it feels on the water. You still get the quiet, natural SUP experience, just with electric assistance when you want it.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to motorize an Atoll Paddle Board using the Bixpy US Fin Adapter.
Installing the Bixpy US Fin Adapter
Motorizing an Atoll board is fast and straightforward. The US Fin Adapter replaces your standard fin and doesn’t require drilling or permanent modifications.
Here’s how it works:
- Remove the stock fin from the fin box
- Attach the Bixpy K-1 Motor to the adapter
- Slide the US Fin Adapter into the fin track
- Tighten it just like a regular fin
Once installed, connect your battery, pair the wireless remote, and you’re ready to ride. The motor gives you multiple forward speeds plus reverse, so you can adjust power for wind, current, or cruising pace.
The low-profile design keeps the board balanced and efficient in the water while adding reliable electric assist.
Powering the Setup with the PP-378 Battery
The Bixpy PP-378 Outboard Battery is an excellent match for paddle boards like the Atoll. It weighs just over 7 lbs, is fully waterproof, and floats which is great peace of mind on Canadian lakes and open water.
At higher speeds, you’ll get over an hour of runtime, and at slower cruising speeds it can last most of the day. That makes it ideal for long paddles, shoreline exploring, or relaxed fishing sessions where steady, low-speed power is useful.
Because the battery is compact and lightweight, it’s easy to secure on your board without affecting balance or deck space.
A Simple Way to Add Electric Power
Adding a Bixpy motor to an Atoll Paddle Board keeps things simple. Installation takes just minutes, the components are lightweight, and the entire system can be removed just as easily when you want to paddle without power.
For paddlers who want extra range, less effort in wind or current, and a more relaxed day on the water, this setup is a practical way to turn a standard SUP into a motorized board without giving up portability or ease of use.
