I would really like to be able to access an area with a DR Mower that is across about a 100' wide stream knee deep in summer - i.e. too deep to ford with the mower running. (akin to the A.T. crossing of the Pleasant River in Maine near Gulf Hagas) I'm not a paddler, and having trouble with the thought of somehow straddling the mower on a tippy canoe. Any ideas?
