FluxJet vs VoyaX Mossa 128: Electric Jet vs Pedal-Electric Hybrid
Two of the most talked-about motorized fishing kayaks right now take completely different approaches. The VoyaX Mossa is a pedal kayak with electric assist, and the Mossa series won Best of Show in the Boats and Watercraft category at ICAST 2026. FluxJet is pure electric jet drive: the ICAST 2025 Best of Show winner and the 2026 Yak Tribe People's Choice Award winner for Best Motorized Kayak, voted by more than 33,000 anglers.
Both are well engineered. They solve different problems, so here's how to tell which one fits the way you fish.

Where each one wins
Two different propulsion philosophies
The Mossa is a pedal kayak first. Its drive lives below the hull in the water column and combines the pedal mechanism, the electric motor and the steering. The FluxJet is pure electric: water comes in through an intake on the bottom of the hull, an impeller accelerates it, and it leaves through a steerable nozzle flush with the rear. The kayak is built around that drive.


Where the VoyaX Mossa wins
- Pedal and motor in one
- If you want to pedal for exercise and switch to electric when you're tired, that's exactly what the Mossa is built for.
- Built-in SpotHold
- GPS position holding is built into the drive, so you don't need a separate anchor system.
- Capacity and size options
- 580 lb capacity on the 128, and a smaller 9'7" Mossa 97 if storage is tight.
- Battery in the box
- The 48V battery and charger come with it. With FluxJet you buy your own battery.
Where FluxJet wins
- Skinny water
- FluxJet runs in about 4 inches with nothing below the hull. With the Mossa, shallow sections mean pulling the drive and paddling.
- Weeds
- No prop and no pedal fins to wrap. The intake can still pick up weeds: slow down in thick vegetation and use reverse to help clear it.
- Your battery, your range
- Any standard marine battery from 12V to 60V. Go lighter for short trips or bigger for long days. See our battery guide.
- Lighter to load
- Rigged and ready, before the battery, a FluxJet is 122 lb. A Mossa 128 is 151 lb before its battery and 164 lb with it. That difference matters every time you lift it onto a rack or a truck bed.
- No pedaling at all
- A throttle dial and foot-pedal steering. Nothing to pedal, so it suits anglers who'd rather not.
The honest verdict
Pick the one that fits your water
If you want to pedal, need built-in GPS position holding, and mostly fish open water deep enough for a drive below the hull, take a serious look at the VoyaX Mossa. It's a well-designed kayak that solves real problems.
If you want pure electric simplicity, fish skinny water or weedy flats, and want to pick your own battery, the FluxJet is the better fit.
