Friday is March 1st. Spring is NOT here. I fear that when it comes...it's going to be a BIG fast Melting "all at once rush, and

this means especially high water on Saint Croix and Mississippi rivers. A weed fin will save you from major equipment and human bodily damage.

A weed fin REALLY does not slow you down. It's just as fast as a sweeper or racing fin.

Philip Money of Windance Inc. took 1st place in the Speed Ditch Run in the Laguna Madre (near S. Padre Island) with a Weed Fin! His top speed was 43 mph! That was back in the Early 90's.

Weed fins will help you avoid a complete dead stop when you hit debris. You WILL hit debris, especially with high water and junk in the water.

Quetzalcoatl out.
