[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Not sure what problems you encountered with the motor behind you. On windy days, the boats do drift, but I have been able to controll that with my flippers for the most part. I have been on waters where it wouldn't matter where the motor was mounted, if you know what I mean[pirate][/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]The box next to me is not just on/ off it is all the speeds forward and backward just like the handle. Infact it is the handle in a box with a big radio knob instead of the long handle.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Can you row with that motor there?[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]I only ask cause while at Henry's this summer, the waves got so bad, that oars was the only way I was going to get back to shore. Waves so bad that at times the prop was out of the water. Not normal for me to be on the water in that case but, that storm came up fast and hard.[/size][/font] [/reply]
I was out at Grantsville Res. and the waves were actually coming over the pontoons when I would get sideways. I could control it on High, but I just fought to keep it straight getting across the lake. I figured if I need to row I'll leave the motor down. I just wanted it out of the way for loading/unloading. I figured you still had forward and reverse speeds, just no steering. What type of fins are you using?
