Oh...I didn't realize you were mounting it thru the haul.

But if you do mount it thru the haul, how would you hull it to the launch?

If they are using an inflatable as an example, what does that say about it's thrust?
Could it actually push a semi-loaded yak ?
What would be the gas consumption with the added weight and planing speed needed ?

I say you go full bore and mount a jato...

lol a jet would be bad. I think I've seen someone post one before.

It's a 2.5 hp motor. It's solid, the casing is solid and is sufficient for any torque that it gives off. It's totaly waterproof on the inside. It's 14" x 20" and would fit on my x-factor in the center. I'd put it on a hinge/lockdown like the hobie peddle assembly while launching/landing
