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 Well that qualifies you for loogytown Although the real Looney isn't man enough to apologize when he's wrong. Maybe there aren't enough hours in the day. |
