Awesome video. I can't wait to get on the water this spring. Where I get on, it is closed off at the moment. But where I am, the water is like where you were at in the video. A marina opening up to a larger body of water. From you video, I can see my Minnkota 30 and Excursion 5 should handle itself well.

Re: Mariner 4 out in San Diego bay today

did you make it past the bridge? Sorry i am hurt that your in a tank top and im here in NYC freezing and set alerts on my phone for the weather to reach 60 degrees. looks good but be careful in the bay i would get a 2.5 gas or even consider the lehr propane then you can fly around and maybe reach 8mph. Overall looks nice enjoy your boat. It's always better to be on an inflatable then fighting for a spot at the pier

LOL, I did make it past the bridge. I'm using a group 31 AGM battery with 210 amp hours so ill go forever. Sure it takes a little longer to putt around that huge bay, but I was quite surprised at the ground it covers. That trolling motor was 98 bucks at Wal Mart, so i'm gonna get some use out of it before I go for a 3-600 dollar gas motor just to go 5-8 mph faster.
