Description
The GILI/Bixpy K-1 Outboard Kit with Flip & Lock Fin Adapter is the complete motorization solution for any GILI inflatable board or boat. Designed specifically for GILI's fin box system, this bundle installs quickly and securely, giving you effortless propulsion at speeds up to 5mph with no hull modifications required. At the heart of the kit is Bixpy's third-generation K-1 jet motor - 20% shorter than its predecessor, the J-2, yet delivering the same 33 lbs of thrust in a quieter, sleeker, and more rugged aluminum housing.
Whether you're a paddler looking to cover more water, a kayak angler who wants to troll hands-free for hours, or simply someone who wants a reliable backup when the wind turns, the Bixpy K-1 Outboard Kit has you covered. With a combined system weight under 10 lbs, 12 forward speeds, Bluetooth wireless control, and run times stretching up to 12 hours at cruising speed, this kit is in a class of its own for ultra-light personal watercraft propulsion.

FAQ
Will this kit fit my specific GILI board or boat?
Yes - the GILI/Bixpy Flip & Lock Fin Adapter is designed to be compatible with all GILI inflatable boards and boats. It installs directly into the standard fin box, so no modifications to your board are required. If you're unsure about your specific model, feel free to reach out and we can confirm compatibility.
Do I need a paddle to steer with this motor kit?
Yes. The Bixpy K-1 Outboard Kit provides propulsion but does not include a built-in steering mechanism. You will need to use a paddle to steer your board or boat while the motor drives you forward. This is standard for fin-box-mounted outboard systems on inflatables.
How long does the battery take to charge?
Charging time is not specified in the product documentation, but the included universal 100-240V wall charger is compatible with outlets worldwide. For exact charge times, refer to the PP-378 V4 User Manual included with your kit or available for download from Bixpy's website.
Can I use this motor in saltwater?
Yes. The Bixpy K-1 Motor features a waterproof, dirt-proof, and corrosion-resistant design with an aluminum body, making it suitable for use in both fresh and saltwater environments. Rinsing the motor with fresh water after saltwater use is always a good practice to maximize longevity.
What is the difference between the PP-378 and PP-768 battery options?
The PP-378 V4 is the standard battery included with this kit, offering up to 80 minutes of runtime at top speed and up to 12 hours at lower speeds. The PP-768 V2 is a higher-capacity upgrade (768Wh vs. 378Wh) that approximately doubles your available energy, extending your range and runtime significantly. The PP-768 is ideal for longer trips or heavy use where you want to stay on the water as long as possible without recharging.
How is this kit shipped, and will I need to assemble it?
The GILI/Bixpy K-1 Outboard Kit ships as a complete package via standard parcel shipping. Minimal setup is required - the Flip & Lock Fin Adapter installs directly into your board's fin box, and the motor connects to the battery via the included cable. A quick start manual is included, and full user manuals are available for download from Bixpy's website.
