Running shoals in the HogIsland

Here's a video of some rocky shoals I was trying in the jet boat. I'm very pleased with the shallow water access the boat has allowed me so far.

That's awesome...that's the kind of stuff that tore my Gheenoe up over the summer.

I'm considering adding an epoxy/graphite coating or line-x to help...but that's a clear advantage to a boat with the roto-mold poly resin construction over fiberglass...well, that and the prop vs jet of course.

Anyway, nice video thanks for sharing it.

looks awesome dude :)
small advice though , you know I am one of those :) might want to stow that trolling motor when running shoals etc.. if it deploys it will be bad for the boat
