She got one fish and we put it back. They had a drawing for the boat. Next year she can fish from her boat.

I think a little boat like that would be just perfect for floating around catching a few fish, looks like it would be easy to load and haul as well! :)

It weighs about 100lbs. One person could load it into a pickup.

One pic of us on the water. Homemade PVC pipe and vinyl siding paddles.

Awesome! The PVC paddles will be for back-up only.

Found a 3 position switch in a box yesterday. I think we can make it work for forward, off, reverse.

Also go to make a trailer from some old bike parts and a futon frame.

Will the switch need relays? What kind of load will the switch handle?

I am not sure yet. I have some relays in a box. The relays may already be in place.
