Hmmmm...

What would it take for you to take it out with me along for the ride?
So to speak. :)
I am sure a demo ride can be arranged for you. As for me, I have zero
interest in buzzing around Buzzard's Bay at 65 mph in a 24' boat with
gunnels 18" above the water.
Just think of it as a Porsche on a test run. Think about it - it's
has a big engine, handles well and is really fast.

Only it's a boat.

On water.



You think the Porsche would tow one of these?

This is one sexy looking boat .... (black hulled Yellowfin 24)

What's that bar in the water behind the motor? Here's a picture of it

It's called a Power Flounder Gigger. Basically, you drift along the
beach uisng a light at night and when you see the shape of of a
flounder in the sand, you press the button and it gigs the flounder,
brings it up to the surface, the pole rotates and delivers a freshly
gigged flounder.

It can also be used for a trailer jack.

Sometimes it's used to position the boat - you set the pole into the
bottom to hold the boat in position. Handy in a tidal rip or on a
flat to keep you from drifting too close to structure, the beach or
such as that.

It's called a "power pole". Used as a shallow water anchor when fishing.
