Hey there tightline,
Sounds like you've done your homework. Thanks for the info as it can be applied to other areas too. As I'm fishing the Big Salty now so much in a tube, I'm thinking that if I need a motor (distance and safety) I should probably go ahead and get a kayak.
Lakes and a heavily loaded tube might be OK but.... ocean currents, big waves and strong winds that occur often and a loaded tube with a motor might be asking for it on the Big Salty. Mind you, I understand there are many flatland lakes that also have huge waves and wind problems. I heard that some Great Lakes storms could make the ocean look like a pussy cat at times.
