i sure have slowed down going . . I bought a GMC senoma 4.3 ltr . thought it would do better on gass . i might git 11 mpg pulling the boat i am 55 mils frome the lake . the river is onley 10 but not enough water to run a boat safeley .guess i will git the 12 footer and 9.9 ready . motor is running fin just have a little water leak to fix . troling motor and pole holders . will be just right for me but the wife doesen`t like the little dingy. don`t know if i can sit in the thing long . guess i will find a sand bar
. with the river sop low it wan`t be hard .
