Post Advice on new backwater inc longtail
Getting ready to buy backwater glider kit. Was gonna put a 22 predator on it but thinking I may go with a 20 hp bc 1 lake I hunt in just went to 20 max. When I talked to Jake at backwater he said I should expect 18-20 mph on my rig with the 22. Will a 20 slow me down considerably or will it be hardly noticeable? Would be going on a 1544 g3 boat

Step one, take stickers off.
Step two, rattle can camo
Step three, say it's a 20

Or, just suck it up and live within the restrictions. We wonder why some want these things banned. Maybe it's because they're so difficult to police the current restrictions since people can't be trusted to do what's right, it's easier just to do away with them altogether...

I’m just gonna go with a 20 hp Honda. I’ve heard they can confiscate your boat if they catch you with a bigger motor. Not taking that chance.
