[quote pontoonman]Wonder how you are typically using your motor, flygoddess? Is there is something particularly delicate involved when flyfishing, that requires multitasking when sitting down doing a beautiful cast, I wonder... Can't think of anything as trouble free for what it can do as an e-motor.

Not sure what you mean by this. I use the motor to get from point A to B, I will even use it to troll to find fish, and of course to hold in wind.
But to be sure you can get a WHOLE day out of a battery does mean keep the motor low (as far as speed)
I use my fins allot. For one thing it is good exercise, and the other...I can get several days in remote camp sites on one battery.
MULTITASKING? I have no idea where that came from. But I am hands few at all times.
With a few dollar modifying of my motor I never need to turn around.
Again, I don't understand your comment.
You venture far off shore, it is SMART to have another source of propulsion other than just a motor. Flippers or Oars, or BOTH.
Even on a regular boat, you are suppose to carry an oar.
