Maiden Voyage video

I got out today and ran around at full throttle for about 3.5 hours without noticing any power leaving. I don't know what I had left but this run was just to test out the motor on the kayak. I tried to snap a pic of my iphone with the speed but with the reflexion I mostly got a pic of my camera. When I was going against the current I was doing a steady 5mph, with the current I was up to 9mph and cross current 7mph. The kayak turned well and seemed pretty fast. I tried to get someone to come and take some video from their kayak or the shore but couldn't get any takers so I just had to take some moving along. Maybe next time I'll have someone on the shore.
