GETTING IN THICK | 5-7hp Mud-Skipper MUD MOTOR

Taking the 1236w Tracker topper Jon boat "Caddie Girl" powered by a 6.5hp harbor freight predator engine coupled to a Mud-Skipper.com 5-7hp long tail mud motor kit into some very shallow flooded timber.

Rig up a kill switch. You fall out, your blender bait.

Tell the guys at mudskipper to put the weights of their kits on their website. I need to know what the 5-7 and 8-16 long tails weigh.

You could easily make a hand throttle with a bicycle brake lever and a throttle cable

[@loganunsworth9263]

What speeds do you get out of your mud motor?

[@MADSLife]

+Logan Unsworth one person, bare minimum gear in my 12ft, 18 mph

[@jinlim6575]

depends on prop size. I noticed mine goes much faster with a prop just 1 half in bigger.

[@hgarcia5530]

Is the cup on the housing the only way to grease it? Does that grease run down into the entire shaft or how does that work?

[@jinlim6575]

the shaft only really needs grease up by the part in the pto shaft where it connects to the engine and spins. the other parts it's baisically freeley spinning and only guided by some wooden bushings. and then down lower it is on a delrin bushing that doesn't require grease
