how much gas does it hold and how far can you go with it?
@OutdoorRetiree3 сағат бұрын
It has a 4 gallon tank and I get about 15 mpg, so it has almost a 60 mile range without carrying extra fuel.

If you are asking about how far it can go, the gas tank holds 4 gallons and I get about 15 mpg, so 60 mile round trip without taking extra fuel.

Waiting on our boats been over 4 months was told was to ship 2 weeks ago. Missed out on few trips because not having them to use. Is this a real company I talked wife into these because USA made an wet are both disabled veteran's an only want out 1 last yr due to injury s? So was happy to see a way I can spend time with the family in the act of living life.
@OutdoorRetiree16 сағат бұрын
Yeah, it is a real company, just a little slow to get the boats out. Mine took over 2 months to ship. It does seem like it takes forever when you are anxiously waiting on it to arrive. I am almost at 3 years with mine now and still enjoying it.

I have seen the pull starter removed to allow more air flow, but I'm not overly worried about the heat. I would like to make it a little quieter though.

Hey Buddy, in1991,I designed and built a 5 meter trapper canoe, with a 550 Kawasaki jet ski,.motor and unit in it. I launched it on TV, it was great fun,sat 2, sealed compartment in front for guns or fishing gear etc.I built it under a Government scheme where they paid me back on proof of working. Unfortunately, one of the government employees stole my,and12 others, checks,and left the country (NZ.) I was left to pay back 12000$ to the bank. Ended up selling it to my cousin for 1000$, . Got the shits, left the country.

looks like the WV capitol building to me - if you go on the Ohio in the northern panhandle around Brown's island there are some forgotten petroglyphs there that are likely underwater now and you can probably find some other ones if you look hard enough.

You are correct, it is the WV capitol. I spend most of my time on the Ohio, but I haven't made it up to the northern panhandle yet. If I do, I'll keep my eye out for some petroglyphs.

awesome video. i am 17 and obsessed with this hobby my grandfather had access to 5000 acres on the savannah river from 1980-1998 in south carolina. SC isn’t known for its artifacts but the savannah river sure is. The land had about half a dozen mounds on it and countless more in the area. He had one of the largest and most significant private collections in the country. Sadly he had some. medical issues from nuclear plant work in the 60s and wasn’t too close with my father. In the end he sold out his entire collection… bannerstones, tons of complete pottery, burial urns, hundreds and hundreds of points, a few dozen axes and celts, etc. The natives in this area were very ceremonial, he had several one of a kind huge pieces thought to be ceremonial. In the end all we got were about 2 dozen 5 gallon buckets of broken points, pottery, stones, and flakes. about 100 points that were either too special or not special enough to sell, 6 mortar and pestles, some pipes, pictures of what he had. I wasn’t old enough to remember seeing it all but from the pictures and what I have heard, it was amazing. Not many sites left like that in the country.
@OutdoorRetiree14 күн бұрын
Thanks! That sucks losing a collection like that. I have seen videos of some really large collections that have come from the coastal areas, so I believe he had a good collection. I'm sure there are still lots of artifacts waiting to be found in your area. They may be harder to find then they used to be because more people hunt them and a lot of the easy to find stuff has been found. Thanks for watching and good luck searching for artifacts!
