[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 236506, member: 55"] Oh, I completely agree. I'm glad to hear that you are only losing a couple mph. I was pointing out that even if the loss was as great as 20 mph, I'd still rather have it, and for the reasons that you do. In this river, you aren't slamming rocks all day long, but it does have a tendency to reach out and 'bite' you with something that shouldn't be where it is. Some of those aren't rocks, they are chunks of pig iron that were dumped in the river. And that's not to account for all the logs that get moved around during power generation. I'm like you, I'm not going to go pounding rocks with it all day long, but having the mulligan that you speak of is very important, and for me, it is important enough to account for a major loss in performance. Without the plastic, any one of those bites could put me in the shop. With it, I might be able to make 15 or more misjudgements, before the boat looses the battle. [/QUOTE]
