It had been in storage all year in the garage. When I started it up, the auger bit rotated without throttling up. It was pretty cold out for a few days so I took it inside, let it warm up for a few hours, and cranked it up again. The bit did not rotate without throttling up like before. Then I let it stay outside overnight, started it up, and once again the bit rotated without throttling up. Maybe the linkage is gummed up? Didn't do this last year at all.
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.
