It does limit your range for sure, and you have to keep a sharp eye on the weather, but it handled pretty stiff winds with ease. The big issue, as another poster said, is you're limited to about 3.5mph so getting anywhere takes time. It usually wasn't an issue for me because the best walleye spots for most of the season were within a half mile of the cabin where the boat lived for 50+ years. Now that I trailer it around to lakes I don't know well I put a 9.9 on it because you can't explore effectively at 3mph. So it all depends on where and how you use the thing.</blockquote>
