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.

Show me that law???


Shouldn't you be out breaking the arms of little kids, loogy?


He must have already reached his quota this quarter.



Well, he sure didn't show up here for his "confrontation" with me. I
didn't announce I would be away, and neither the vidcams nor the
"catsitter" indicated anyone other than the usual delivery guys showed
up here in my absence.

What a lying, cowardly little pussy he is.

I'll see if I can spot you out.

Thanks!

I'm mostly over at the "other outboards" helping Eska owners
but theres a pic of my 1969 marquis in the trihull club post at the
restoration forum.

Excellent! *Now that you mentioned it. My 23 ft Marquis has the gas
tank buried under the floor. Its in fine shape but I'm wondring what
the capacity is? I can't find any specs for it on the ID plate, and
I've looked the 'net for it and have come up with nothering. It is an
inboard metal unit. mounted off center ad on the port side. There is a
small hatch in the floor where a person can access the sending unit,
and that's it. Not enough room to measure it.

Doug do you have any ideas?

Ciphon it out and refill it.

Seeing that even with stabilizer added before I parked it the gas is
two years old now, so that might be what I'll have to do.

Show me that law??? my mother in law is or was the former secretary of
the "save our lakes" down there, and they have spent millions trying to
get ride of the hydrilla from all the bill dance types out there packing
the **** from one lake to the other, when I was younger Lake Walk in the
Water had none, you could see thhe bottom, now you can walk across that
****, they spry paths accross the lake so you can run your boat...1000
for florida hydrilla...BS...somethings not right here

What's wrong is you think sea grass is hydrilla.

You ain't very good at this. At least take the time to find out that
a lot of new posters came here while you were gone.
By my count a total of 1.
That would be Happy.
