Great info folks. Thanks. I do have the black
dle bags with the clear plastic sides, which I assumed were for maps. Dave Scadden is so cleaver and deliberate in his designs that I should have known there was a more specific purpose for the clear side pockets.
I’ve ordered the motor mount and already purchased the motor, battery and case, so may as well spring for the registration. I’ll probably have to eat some of the cost of the Endura motor, but it was only $100 bucks to start with. I took my Assault out last week with a wood and PVC motor mount I cobbled together, so I know what you mean about the Endura 30 being underpowered; however, it was enough to get me back to the car in a stiff, Strawberry headwind. I had the same thoughts that it’s really not so much for fishing as getting to and from your destination quickly.
I just got Scadden’s upgraded oars like the ones I’ve seen on Flygoddess’ boat (the psychedelic ones). I’m hoping to hit Strawberry tomorrow so I’ll leave the motor at home and just fin and oar my way around – something I actually really enjoy. I love burning all those calories without giving it a second thought as I’m focused on the fishing.
Flygoddess, I just got some of your furled leaders and can’t wait to try them out. They are things of beauty.
