13hp Backwater Mud Motor Load Test 1436 Jon Boat

Carrying a heavier load than normal for me on this 1436 jon boat. This is also the second time I'm taking out the Backwater Swomp Lite Glider Kit 12-16 HP.
I was wanting to try the props that Jake at Backwater sent over but with the load that was on the boat, both 9" props were too big.
The main difference was the big cooler adding 110 to 120 pounds. The cooler weighs 32 lbs and it was half full of ice and water (80 lbs)
I will do an empty boat test and go play in the grass another day to see what this kit can do. For now, it handles pretty well. I still get a lot of vibration in the handle, but it keeps its speed with the added load of 110 pounds while running the 8x4 prop. The 9x5 prop was too much and I didn't get to test the 9x4.
