Personally I'd check out eBay, Amazon and some of the others before I'd buy anything from Dick's. Mike

I prefer a little 4 stroke gas motor.
A lot of waters don't allow gas motors. In fact I know some that don't allow any. Paddle or oar only. Mike

Once you add a motor you will probably have to register it. Just adds a little extra expense.

Have been using a 30 lb. trolling motor on a 10 foot jon boat for several years now.
Plenty of thrust and lasts all day with a 100 amp hour battery.

I used a 30 pound thrust Minkota on my 17 foot canoe and it was great, used it against the current in rivers and everywhere on lakes.

Minn kota’s are great,but a 40# thrust motor guide is cheaper and hard to beat. Any cheap marine battery will work about a year. Ha cheap.
