I have 2 guys fishing crappie masters events that are using the Drift'R paddles. They have put them in the mud and hung them on the stumps at Grenada with no problems. They hold up great and work very well.
There are also 2 guides on Ky lake using the paddles Bufflo13 and wiskers . Bad Brad at ky lake and Barren all CDC members running them on there boats.
We have a setup for a jack plate boat and a non jack plate setup.

They are manually operated pull the rope to put them in pull the rope to pull them out they lock into place. Takes 10 min to install brackets on the boat. Once they are installed you add the paddles. If you are not going to need paddles then pull one pin to remove paddles place them in the pick up truck or they fit in the storage compartment on my Ranger Z 20 Takes only a seconds to put paddles on or remove.

how much will they slow the boat > i have a 18/60 wareagle. can i achieve .3 or .4 mph with a 15mph + wind ? if so i think they could be a great addition to have on my boat while drifting reelfoot. At ky lake i usually fish man made structure. so prolly not much use for me there since i dont drift that lake often unless im ling line trolling.
