[QUOTE="seahorse, post: 517292, member: 35919"] I converted mine from a weedless model to a conventional version years ago. The results were night and day. On 12ft jon boat with two people in it its does fine just so there's no current. If I get it into any serious current it has trouble making headway. It was useless in fast moving water with the weedless lower and prop. I use the motor now a a trolling motor in the back bays and it got me home once when an impeller failed in the main motor but it was a SLOW ride home. If I was in the river, going against the flow it wouldn't have been able to move the boat against the current or wind. My 58lb thrust trolling motor actually pulls stronger in the current . I've had four of these and this one is he best one so far. [ATTACH type="full"]121679[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
