 Mud Motor Pulling Tuber? I know this is not really the puropse of these boats and motors but after beign out fishing for the week on a pretty big lake and tubing with the kids they asked if a mud motor/duck boat could pull a tube behind it? I would think that these flat bottom boats being so light would potentially have the ability to get pulled around by the tube after it starts to swing.
Has anybody successfully done this with their boat? I would also think that it even may take duals to do such a taks.
Thanks
Phil

Re: Mud Motor Pulling Tuber? I pulled a tube when my motor was stock, even pulled a tube across a mud flat.
Trim down or the person and tube tend to come up a little muddy.

Re: Mud Motor Pulling Tuber? Pulled a kneeboard and tube lots of times..... Don't trim to high or get a long rope.

Re: Mud Motor Pulling Tuber? How do the boats do with the swing and boat pulling without a keel I am sure a dual would do much better eh?
Thanks

Re: Mud Motor Pulling Tuber? You're probably limited as to how much you can swing them cause the boat won't turn good if you have a slick bottom.
