[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]The Orvis boat is steel, not aluminum so I sympathize. On camping excursions, specially like the Uinta's I think a float tube is a good answer. I don't use my SFC anymore since I bought my Echo. Now when I still water I only need hip boots.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Also on that Orvis, several of my friends bought them also and they do require those OAR RIGHTS. They keep the blades from turning.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I don't mind breezy days cause I can row to one spot and let the wind carry me.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]But, as you said, I do have a motor. When camping out for a weekend however keep in mind that, that battery needs to be recharged so I do manual propelsion a lot and don't use my battery all that often. I also like to anchor down and deep nymph.[/size][/font]
