I've seen plenty of hills off the Rhode Island and Maine coasts. They
also move. I think you would agree that a 2.2 hp is no match for a
moving hill..."
Moving hills can be a problem, but a source of merriment at my marina (San
Diego) is watching outbound sailboats being slowly driven back in stern first
as their 9.9 outboard is running at 12000rpm in fwd!
Better too much engine then too little..you can always throttle back.
LOL!!!
I see that all the time myself. Usually, I'll take the Contender out
and give them a hand getting back through the breakwater into the
Marina. :)
Later,
Tom
