Hey guys, I posted this on another forum but never got a response from anyone so figured maybe someone on here has done with or can think of a good idea.
Well Brant season is coming up again but this year I've spent the money and ordered a Stumpjumper frame kit and had to make some mods but got it all done and installed on my Momarsh fatboy.
Little boat will go anywhere, vegetation can't stop it, very torquey with only a 5 hp on it plus probably a little over 60lbs wet, all done up.
My question is though I have a fatboy and my brother has the same boat and what I need to figure out is the easiest way to tow it maybe at the most 1000 yards into water. It's fairly shallow, we'll chase the tide somewhat so water will never be over our waders plus we'll launch a big boat if the waters too rough.
I was thinking of something like setting them side by side. I've seen a video with Ira towing a few momarshes by just a attachment point a bit down the shaft of the longtail but I still worry about cutting the rope back there, or even the other boat, I thought of somehow having a pipe from one boat to another and 4 clips two on each boat so you can clip it in and it'll be a solid connection to each boat Maybe a bad idea but that's why I'm asking before I try it on the big water. Gotta get a bit more seat time on the local sloughs, so I feel at home at the helm of the mud motor. Thanks guys.
Heres my setup.
