Penetration?
"Don White" wrote in message ... "SteveB" wrote in message ... How important is penetration in the water for a trolling motor? I took my Lund out, and both the 1.2 hp Gamefisher, and the Minn Kota 55 seem to be making a lot of noise when they get close to the surface. I can make mounts so they will be below the level they are now, but right now, they are barely a foot under water. Unless the boat is loaded with people sitting just right, they both are going blub blub blub a lot of the time. Should I make the mounts, or just buy motors with longer shafts? Steve Some light reading for you: http://smalloutboards.com/shaft.htm http://www.deltaprop.com/linkso.asp http://www.minnkotamotors.com/selectamotor/ has shaft lengths, etc. |
