You can drag a 3 ton slab of concrete around a lake bed all day with a
bass
boat? Wow. I had no idea.


Actually, maybe. Depending on where and how the tow-chain was hooked
up, and what kind of prop you've got. And what the bottom is.



This is Turtle.

sand bottom , 20 feet of water, extra long motor shaft to draw motor
water for
power, 225 H.P. Evinruide / Johnson with 4 blade power propt. and not
speed
propt.. then hook up to front axle and drag forward. You can make it Ski
behind
this boat.

I had a friend that bought 3 flate bed ford 350 trucks old and eat up with
rust
and he drug them out in Toledo Bend Lake in Louisiana / Texas and he drug
them
around like nothing with his 200 H.P. bass boat. He put them all in one
place to
make a White Perch Hole. that 200 H.P. motor will pull more that anyone
would
think and he never open the motor up to pull the load for about 1/2
throttle was
all he used. If I would not have seen it myself i would not have believed
it
myself.

Here's your problem, TURTLE... an old Ford truck or a new caddy is going to
displace a lot more water than a slab of concrete. And the vehicle will be
buoyed by the equilvalent weight of displaced water...Archimedes, I
think...sooo,,,,I reckon you should justy cut your losses here and figure a
bass boat ain't gonna pull a 3 ton slab of rock around a lake bed.

Nuff said on that one.
