He would never make a sale to a Louisiana duck hunter if he wore a life
jacket. Go devil boats and super go devil boats are very popular for duck
hunting. The motor on theses things can be anything from a lawnmower engine
to a Subaru engine. They make some models with double props and two
engines.

They are not designed to go 10 miles down a deep bayou but to access swamps
and areas with heavy Lilly pads. Most of the areas are 1 to 4 foot deep.
There are deeper slues and ponds but most areas theses boats operate is less
ten 4 foot.

Other boats used to go through similar areas is a mud boat. The car engine
is mounted in the center of the boat with a prop shaft that goes out the
bottom of the boat.

He was not using the safety kill switch?

Are you really saying that the simple fact that the guy in the demo video
wore a life jacket would stop a Louisiana duck hunter from buy something
that would clearly do what he wanted/needed to be done? Well then, one of
the operators in the video has clearly blown the sales opportunity already,
because the first guy they show doing it is wearing his. The 2nd guy
though, really bothers me. He's bumping his way over floating logs with the
boat on plane, and the kill switch lanyard is swaying in the breeze hanging
from the throttle. Way too easy to get bounced out of the boat doing
exactly what he's doing to not be using it.

But the motor is cool. Prop's a lot closer to the boat than a traditional
godevil, which has got to make it more maneuverable. I kinda like it. Looks
like it would work well in the nut.

Right in one. I saw that kill cord dangling and had the same thought. They
are jumping logs and... It would just take one unexpected branch int he
worng spot to give that boat a good pitch one way or the other.
