Awe come on 10 mph is a breeze...LOL.
At least it was blowing the right direction. For me, it is always blowing away from shore and I have to work to get back.
Of course, that is where I would have rowed out and drifted with casting and stripping line back in. Let the wind move me.
I am with you though, I have move away from anything without oars about a year ago and will never look back.
I seriously didn't notice a big difference in wind resistance other than I got a little more beat up on a smaller boat (tube) and legs burning.
In fact I tried both in one day to make sure. Both are effected by wind in my opinion. But one is legs only, the other legs and oars.
Unless you add a motor, then there is no problem...[laugh][laugh][laugh]
Be careful with an anchor also. Many a lines have been wrapped around by fish. And in my case, I have had to chase a few fish and an anchor would have cost me the fish.
On your boat, how comfortable is the seat? Allot of people ask me about them.
