Got lots of stares. Almost constant paddling, seated and standing.<br \/>\nSo comfortable!<br \/>\nCould have gone much longer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Update II<\/h4>\n<p>Had a blast on the water on Sunday. Just need to get used to steering behind me. S4 handled perfectly, even over the wakes from other boats and jet skis. Got a few stares and thumbs up. Plenty of power from the 6hp Tohatsu to get to my fishing spots quickly. Then, I can tilt the motor up and paddle\/pole around the skinny water.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Update III<\/h4>\n<p>Got my S4 up to 13 mph, but it runs consistently at 11 mph at open throttle. Just me and light gear on board. Wonder if others are experiencing the same, or better. Love to jump the wakes of jet skis and other boats. But, normally not at top speed. It could easily handle a larger motor.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jack Snapp Texas &nbsp; Took off from work early to get my S4 on the water the first time.
