Looks like you have a friggin 9 foot shaft on that bow mount! How does that handle 2.5 foot waves?
its a 72" shaft... 2.5' waves are nothing for her, it'll take 4+ feet waves to keep me off the water... I haven't had this one out in them yet but I did test drive one in 5+ and I probably wouldn't actively fish that but I wasn't scared about getting back to the dock
