We are closing the Dungeon track for April and May or until this virus has settled down.

OK Billy, we understand  :good:  Gives me more time to get my Hemi installed in my JK Indy car  :)

 

Social distancing comes naturally to me anyway; my retirement plan isn't so bad after all

Looks top heavy to me, I would not fish standing on the top. Catch a big gar fish and the whole thing would lay on its side.

I'm gonna spend my stimulus check on a new used 115 horse Evinrude, it will lower the CG considerably. Don't forget, in calm waters a flat bottom rectangle platform at about 3/1 length to beam is very stable. Look at this one, it had all kinds of high weight on it and it didn't capsize – it ran aground.   :)

Hey Billy, you think my trailer raft yacht can make it all the way up the Tenn-Tom to Prattville?  :crazy:  With a 115 on 'er she could probably make about six knots,   :dance3:

Horsepower is a measure of acceleration. Torque is a measure of power. To illustrate, here is Billy Watson rowing a boat. Pure grunt, we don't need no fancy jack plates or hydrofoils

Once my new 115 horse comes, the 15 horse off the raft will be for sale. I'll throw in a jack plate and extra fuel can  :crazy:  :bomb:
