There is a lot of rod there. One spot had a gash almost an inch deep before. Can't wait to float it! Of course it's cold and rainy here today.

Motor ran and drove great. Not enough room to plan out but seems to have decent power. It was a little tricky backing up cause the motor wouldn't lock down but that is fixed now.
