Went canoeing at Wacissa River again today. Over the past few
yrs, I
have noticed some odd motors obviously intended for very shallow
weed
infested waters. These motors resemble a lawnmotor engine with a
very
long shaft, maybe 6' on which there is a prop at the very end.
They
go very well in the mats of vegetation covering the water whereas
a
conventional outboard immediately bogs down and gets stuff in the
water intake.
I am wondering if these odd outboards will mean fewer airboats
because
both are intended to be used in nearly zero water.
Just bear in Mind Florida has a new law about destroying sea
grass,
The fine is a fairly modest $1000 but they can also take you into
civil court for the price of restoring the damage to the grass and
that can be a huge number.
Yep your right and I was ignorantly blowing my mouth about
something I knew
nothing about, sorry ole man, I guess I don't know my hydrilla from
sea
oats,
Please except my apology
best regards,
Happy
