[QUOTE="Waterwings, post: 208885, member: 123"] My 16' rig is electric-only, with a 54# MG foot-control on the bow, and a hand operated 40# MK on the stern, with each one connected to a seperate deep-cycle battery. The one on the stern is rarely used, except to get the boat on the trailer, but is mostly my backup propulsion in case the unit on the bow fails. I do have two paddles onboard, which are a 3' and 4.5' (I think) canoe-type wooden paddles. They are both stowed in the 60" storage box on the port side, with them used mainly to push-off from the bank or ramp, as others do. If push came to shove (both tms/batteries failing), I'd use them for paddling, but it would be a [i]real[/i] task. :shock: [/QUOTE]
