Navigating Skinny Water with a Transom Mount Trolling Motor by SUP Customs.

Hey everyone, just out here. Tide is kind of out, going out, if it's not all the way out. So we started at high tide, and this is when I talk about we defy the tide — this is what I mean. You're not getting a boat where I'm at right now, for the most part. I don't know how skinny it is. We got some spots up here that's, I'll show you in a second. But anyways, brought my engine up here, my Suzuki up, and I just kind of show you how skinny you can get. I could get skinnier if I was paddling, but I want to show you, we've never shown you how skinny we can get

with the trolling motor. So here it is. Of course that's dragging. You can see here, I mean, we're in, I don't know, 2 in three. I'm not getting into a measuring contest with anyone, but we're skinny. 2,000 lb boat's not going to get through here with a bunch of people, with with a trolling motor. So you lift your trolling motor all the way up. This is going to cavitate a little bit, I got a blade out of the water. So what, each blade on the trolling motors, you know, it's, it's going to probably hit the bottom maybe a little bit. You can see how

skinny. But again, if this trolling motor won't get me through here, I could just simply paddle. You see the board floating? Let me push it a little bit and catch up to it. Look at that, and I still got plenty to go if I just wanted to paddle. And that's what we did for years, before we designed and invented the front utility plate. So anyways, let me jump on and show you what this thing can do. Get all the mud off. All right, so I just added 200 more lbs, 700 lb capacity. Let me turn her down a little bit, she's going too fast, and there we

go, that's about the limit. Okay, let me see here. Let me turn her up a little bit, she probably not making enough ground, right? So she was fine back here, but look what just happened, we got skinnier. So here, let me, let me run here. All right, so I just got off of her, she's not really touching. So let me just raise this up real quick — I apologize for the camera — get her out of the water here. Now look at that. Now just put it at an angle. All right, now she's floating fine, but we just got a little deeper. Skinny, skinny. So let's go back, let's try

that again. Let's pretend that this is winter time and it's a negative low, which sometimes we're pushing it over this. But there's another bay back here that's holding 400 fish, all trapped at a low tide. That's what we do most of the winter. So now she's tilted a little bit, and here we go. This is all mud. These are airboat trails or what. These are old, all just flat out black mud. There we go. I don't know if you can see it guys, I mean, but this is spit. I could even run skinni or paddling, but this is running in spit, getting

where you need to go with the trolling motor and techniques. Hope that helped. Long video, I know, but we want to sell you something that's legit. And now we're getting deeper, we're getting to this bay. Massive oyster bed up here that I know of. Let's see if I can get fish.
