 Kids tubeing?
Any one use their Mudmotor to pull people on a tube? Wondering if it can be used for more than hunting and fishing.  Thanks

My old 1848 with a GTR would pull me on a wakeboard with 2 people in the boat.
I'm sure you could pull a tube around in it!

 Re: Kids tubeing?

 Re: Kids tubeing?
Nice pictures, looks like fun!
Running a PolarKraft 1648 Jon with a 27 PD at work. The boat is great for what we are using it for (Running Shallow Rock/Sand bottom Rivers) They performed better then anything during the Southern Alberta Floods. Only boats that could operate in those conditions, don't know how many outboards the Army cooked on their rafts but it was a few. (We also have a couple 23 Mini's on the same boat)
Would really like to get one for myself, try to get a good price for 1870 Tincan with a 36PD EFI and a CC... Just got to convince my wife that is has more use then running rivers and fishing. Grandkids like to play in the water.....

Wouldn't do it with a godevil, but any motor with neutral, go for it! Bonus, you can trim that motor up and spray the shit out of em if you keep em on a short leash.

 Re: Kids tubeing?
Man I use my boat for fishing, hunting, and a lot of riding!! When I have a boat I am on the water at least once a week. I just like being on the water and my girlfriend is with me 90% of the time.
That 27 might be a little tough to pull a tube at high speeds though. But it should be enough to keep the kiddos entertained!

 Re: Kids tubeing?
You should show some of the pictures of all the homes with there doors kicked in from the R.C.M.P. In high river.  How many guns did they steal from legal gun owners? Didn't sound like they got " helped" to me. All you did was make shure only the criminals had guns. Thanks for all your help.

 Re: Kids tubeing?
Sorry, has nothing to do with skiing. Look at the link in his post. Then look up High river flood. Just want to let everyone know how they helped the " lawful gun owners of Canada" To me it was a sad,sad day in Canadian history. I have a lot of respect for police and military and I'am shure there were a lot of them not wanting to do this when people needed help. I live in Canada were people will not be happy till all guns are gone! If that happens I will do everything in my power to make shure that doesn't happen in my life time. Sorry for the rant! EH!

 Re: Kids tubeing?
Before I got my bay boat I would pull the kids on a tube behing my 36 prodrive. It took a little bit to get them on top and the boat would slide a little when I would sling shot them. Other than that on issues.
