Don’t know what they cost, but I do know that it is a sweeet little boat if you needed it. First Class only cost 80% more. [emoji23][emoji23]
My thoughts are that if you’re in skinny enough water to get it plugged up with weeds and debris, then you could get it to the bank, flip it up and unplug the TM prop with a pair of muck boots on. I don’t see sticks plugging it. Weeds maybe, but I figure weeds MIGHT wrap around it and still allow the prop to spin enough to drive it to the bank. Might pack a tall pair of boots for that. Most wading places that boat will get you to shouldn’t be much trouble. I run my trolling motor through that skinny stuff enough to stir the mud, and I seldom If Ever have weeds on my prop. The weedless blades usually cut them away.

No doubt its a very nice set up!
Utube has several videos concerning this subject. Loose grass seems to be some of a problem. One guy made a tool from rebar to clean the weeds out. I researched this boat for several years before buying one. it is a very safe boat and drafts very shallow. The main point I see in the boat that I never had before owning this one is boat control. it becomes second nature operating the foot controls while leaving your hands free for fishing. Wind is not a problem due to the hull design the pockets the motors sit in fill with water and acts as a vaccum sticking the boat to the water. Am I trying to sell this boat the answer is NO just trying to educate on what it is. It may not fit everyones needs but it does mine. I am now 71 and don't want to swim trying to fish. lol.
I understand. I wish I owned one. Just can't pull the trigger at that cost. Seems like a great set up for most conditions. A lot to be said about boat control and sitting up in that seat to!!
I think I've posted this video before, but never underestimate the lowly canoe. This is a video of me in my old warhorse with a homemade transom bolted on the stern end and a gamefisher air cooled 3hp coming out of a swamp with a mess of big ol specks.
She'd go back in time if you didn't watch it on the throttle :)
