Can I use a trolling motor with my ODC Pontoon Boat?

The Creek Company: Pontoon Boats, Float Tubes, Tackle Bags, ...
Yes you can. The Creek Company recommends using electric trolling motors only! We have found that a motor with 36 pounds of thrust works great with all of our boats. Cargo Decks are not for standing and fishing off of! For the ODC Sport, Super Sport and 816 models, you will need the motor mount/anchor drop system #856, $79.99. All other boats have the system standard on the rear decks. Not for use with the ODC Jetpack.

Do I need life jackets in a boat that doesn''t have a motor?

Frequently Asked Questions - 473
Yes. Whether the boat has a motor or not is immaterial to the life jacket law. Wyoming law requires that watercraft, whether motored or not, must carry a U.S. Coast Guard approved wearable personal flotation device (PFD) of a suitable size for each person on board. "Water sport toys" -- float tubes, air mattresses -- are exempt from the PFD requirement in most instances.

Is it practical to sail engineless or with only a small outboard motor?

Atom Voyages | Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
After sailing several years with a cantankerous old Atomic 4 gasoline inboard motor which I rarely used, I decided to remove it entirely and sail engine-free. I made this choice for many reasons, including feeling that I was ready to tackle this sport on another level. Sailing alone and engineless seemed the best way to discover whatever it was that I was looking for.

Do you need lots of horsepower to drift?

Drift Session
No. However, what you lack in horsepower and torque, you need to make up for with momentum when drifting. While having lots of horsepower to spare can make drifting easier, it is not a requirement. Having lots of horsepower often lets a drifter correct mistakes and compensate for bobbles on the track that a low horsepower vehicle cannot. Once a low horsepower vehicle loses speed and momentum while drifting it is difficult to regain that momentum due to the lack of sufficient horsepower.

Ironwood Pacific Marine Accessories - Frequently asked quest...
In many cases the pontoon ramp will work great for tri-toons. You first need to measure the clearance between the pontoons right underneath the deck. If you have at least 24" of clearance between the pontoons and a minimum of 4" of vertical clearance, the pontoon ramp will install easily.

What size (weight) tube jigs should I use to drift with?

A basic rule of thumb is to use the jig weight that will keep you from digging into the bottom and snagging up on vegetation and one that won't float too high and out of the strike zone. With a steady breeze, 3/16 oz. with a 90 degree bend seems to be a good place to start. That way you can go lighter to 1/8 or heavier to 1/4 or more if needed. If you are using 5" tubes, allow for a little less jig weight to make up for the weight of the extra plastic.
