Pffff, we beat that way back in the day. I bought a spool of 750 feet just for that purpose a while ago, we never got around to it. It was pretty interesting back there, so quiet, no boat noise at all. We had a bunch of stretchy ropes tied together, so when you got up, you immediately sat back down, then up, then down, took about 10 times before it stretched out. The rope came out of the water right in front of your feat. Crystal clear, the weeds were standing back up, we almost had a boat go between the rider and the boat at one point.
