Low profile (wind resistant) pontoons

[Jim_T]

I've been experimenting with the motor pushing me and pulling me. Last weekend it was pushing me most of the time. I didn't have any problems going in a straight line as I had the oars in the water laying against the sides of the pontoons and they act like a keel. The problem was that I wasn't moving very fast due to heading straight into the wind. I had to run at least at "4" to make any progress.

I did notice that having the motor pull me works better I just haven't reversed my handle yet because I'm not sure I like looking over my shoulder so much. Maybe a small mirror on my glasses might work (like the bike riders use).
