I am looking to get a new trolling motor for my boat and I want a 70 thrust Minn kota with the longest shaft. A few things though. First would i rather have just the plain old minn kota or the maximum what is the difference. Second what is the longest shaft i can get in a 70 thrust. Last is would i mount it my self or have a boat dealer do it and how much would they charge to do that.
While I am posting i also would like some wave wackers but if i were to get them i would need a cut out for a kicker. where would i get these. Could i also have a boat dealer put these on and order them for me and for how much or are they easy enough for me to put them on my self. Finnaly how much would these cost.
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.
