So what exactly has been determined as the best way to stay off the bank again? I've been wearing them out lately with this new PD hull!

Easy off the throttle, turn the motor, then give it gas. It takes some getting use to but once you get the hang of it you can scare the chit out of your buddies while remaining cool! |

I sure might be overdriving it into the turns then but... on the mud flats this rig acts like its on ice. I tried slowing down alot, but I didnt want to drop it into that thick mud. Also this is a square chined boat. I'm sure it just takes practice to get it. My other boat had ribs on the hull and that made it turn different. |

There is no turning on some of the mud flats here on the coast. Its best to just shut it down while you are still in a little water. |
