Is there any chance we will see an eclipse with 180 drive?

I was just thinking that today as well!!! Pondering if I can modify a 180 drive to make it work. :)

Sometimes a quick reverse is needed... no time to get down to free a paddle from the bungee... turning radius isn't sharp enough to get out of some "scrapes" & the board finish ruins very easily.

Although, if it would add to the already too high cost, I can't see many affording them.

A 'quick' way for paddle access, is paddle blade in a 'pool noodle' in front of the steering column, and a single wide velcro strap holding it to the steering column. A quick pull on the velcro strap, and lift out the paddle..... ready to paddle! (I have TWO velcro straps in the picture, but only the TOP one is required.) (Bungee holds the pool noodle in place at the base of the steering column)
