[QUOTE="Lowrider1, post: 487131, member: 17989"] I believe that's adequate buoyancy on each side. I plan on using something similar to the ratcheting system used on most electric boat trolling motors. I have no desire to stand on edge/side of the boat, just to get enough stability to use a leaning post centered in front of my seat and fly fish...hopefully catching a fish now and then. I have a long trout net so no real need to lean over the edge of the boat...or to return fish to the water. I have no feeling in my feet and leg due to Agent Orange exposure so I'm pretty careful getting out of balance...but I wear an inflatable floaty always and am a good swimmer. I'll see if I'm smart enough to post a picture once I get things working on the boat. Spring is COMING!!! [/QUOTE]
