Does anyone know what would be comparable power between gas and electric trolling motors? in other words is a 80 Lbs thrust electric comparable to a 5 HP gas. or is a 8 HP gas about the same thrust as a 36V electric. Kind of comparing apples and oranges by converting them to pears.
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.
