    Oar length

    I fish the river and I can’t get back upstream with a trolley motor is my entire problem or this wouldn’t even be an issue. I also go out alone or with my 2 year old son most of the time

    Oar length

    Thanks for the link again! I looked at the link again, and I’m getting recommendations of around 10 1/2 almost 11 feet each per oar.

    Oar length

    Being someone that misses the obvious a majority of the time it occurred to me exactly what to do. I am going to buy 2 2x2x10 or 2x4x10s this spring and see what length is comfortable to get the feelings of paddling with.

    We call em trolley motors here in indiana not trolling motors. It’s any traditional electric motor that you hook up to a battery. The way you use it has impact on the name. No one here calls them trolling motors it’s always trolley motor.

    I have a 1 year old son that I take out fishing often. It basically would just be a break glass Incase of emergency set of oars. Whoever had the boat before me removed the oar locks. I need to install more.

    Oar length

    I’m thinking I need to get a set of oars for my Jon boat. I have an outboard and trolley motor with me at all times anyways, but I’m sure I won’t regret the purchase. My boat is 16 feet long and the beam is 68.5”. I’ve done some Google searching but I’m confused as to what to buy. Any idea on...

    I need a new project

    Winter seems to be picking up steam, and I'd like to find a cool motor to work on this winter. I'd like it to be something I haven't done before. I have tools to work on Johnson and Evinrude motors. Marketplace and Craiglist seems pretty slim right now locally, so I'd be willing to drive a bit...

    Water pump will 100% be replaced. I'm actually going to convert this to a long shaft. I was given a kit a while back, and found the motor and pounced on it.
