The minnkota autopilot on my boat at times has a mind of it's own. Always in big waves but also on glass the thing will be working fine and then it loses it's heading and starts spinning. I stop it and exactly 3 seconds later it starts spinning again, I stop it count to 3 and again the spinning. It's done it in Minnesota, SD, and Canada so I don't think it's some sort of issue with magnetic fields in the area. Any answers would be great.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
