Hey guys, im new to this forum and kinda new to boating. I just bought myself a 2009 Lund WC14 V-hull boat.....getting ready to hit some freshwater lakes this year. Now heres the question, I have a trolling motor allready and plan on getting a 8 or 9 HP gas motor before i hit the water. Do, or should i get Oars? I really dont want to just because of limited space on the boat. I dont believe they are required by the state. I figure if something happens to the gas motor, i have the trolling motor to get me back. What do you guys think????
