Mud motor question

Postby Duck$$$ » Mon Oct 06, 2014 5:25 am

I recently bought a piece of property with 150 ac swamp\flooded grass. A regular outboard will not work. The water is 2-5 foot deep in most places. I've never owned or operated a mud motor. I have a 16' boat and wondered what size I need to push it carrying 3-4 people and decoys plus dog. Not looking for speed since such a small area. What you think ?

Get a copperhead mud motor. I got one last year and mine performed well.
