Mike, My son Todd and I will come over and have lunch but not running. Family in town. No time to get anything ready. Not sure just when I can get around on the knee.Mini Cat Racing USA

Scott, that would be a BIG help. You can call me and I'll give you directions. I have a Dr.'s appointment at 10a.m. so may not be in from about 9-noon.

We're talking about having an un-official run/cookout up at highndry's place on New Years day. That's not Ackerman Park though. We should be there again on Jan 9th.
I think you're somewhere up around Clearwater aren't you Mike? I've never been there so you'll have to put up some directions sometimes between now and then. I may have found us a "loaner" trolling motor from one of the guys I work with too. Emphasis here on "may have". Don't count on it until I have it in my hands.Comment

Mike (HighNDry) place is in Land O' Lakes. Take I-75 North to State Road 56. Go west to U.S. 41. Go north to Bell Lake Road. Turn right. Turn right on Lake Padgett Drive. Follow all the way to the end. Mike's house is next to last on the left!Mini Cat Racing USA

A loaner motor would be good. I'm not sure these little Minkota trollers are worth owning. This is the second one to crap out. Probably only used a total of maybe 15 times! This latest one used about 5 times.
The treasury is pretty bleak right now. If anybody runs across a really cheap deal on a really good trolling motor, maybe we should consider it?Mini Cat Racing USA

The huy who volunteered the loaner (he's an avid fisherman) also volunteered telling me why we were burning them up. Trolling motors don't like being run at full throttle (where we run them) since they were designed to move slowly.
Maybe we should get one of those big monster outrunners from hobby king and find a way to use it.Comment

Oops. I mis spelled guy didn't I?
Chances are the one that was hanging on your flats boat wasn't one of the $115 specials like we're running. I'm sure the fishing guides aren't using them either. According to Gary (the guy) the trolling motor he actually uses on his rig could put our little jon boat on a high speed plane. Something like a 80 lb thrust that runs on 24 volts.Comment

Hey Ray are you lurking around out there? Haven't heard anything out of you in a couple of weeks now.
Larry's been kinda quiet the past few days as well. You guys OK out there.
Actually I got a good question for one of that might have done it before. I got the add on cap banks in but haven't attached them yet.
The one on the the esc are 1000 uf x3 for I giess 3000 uf. The etti's are 10 cap banks of 470 uf rated ones for a total of 4700. Is that going to work ok or will it release the magic smoke.Comment
