Fill it up and then siphon it out into 5 gallon jerry jugs while it's
on the trailer ?

Why have all those cans? Run it almost dry, when you get home siphon
off the last bit of fuel, then go to the gas pump and refill the
tank...

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

Well, in all fairness I trust you would have thought of it before buying
all those Jerry cans

Of course on a serious note, different worlds... You probably have
several reasons for not letting your tanks get that low that we are not
thinking of..

Taking the boat out with antique gas doesn't sound like a great idea
to me, but it still smells at least half way useable. It might cough
and sputter some. But getting towed in over crap fuel and/or clogged
fuel filters isn't too apealing

Yup, didn't think of the old gas.. But same thing, he can empty it and
then fill it, that will give him the info he is seeking... After a few
trips he could get a good idea of how much a day on the water is gonna'
cost him easily...

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.

You expected different?
