I have a cub cadet 19HP it cruises at a whole 10-15 MPH with out the deck.

Awesome I might be the biggest redneck by doing this but it sure beats walking a few miles at CWood.

they have those pro mod tractors they race, they do 50+ easy, are low, no decks, good stuff! we used to build pulling tractors as kids out of regular garden tractors, they had split gear boxes with low range and a ton of weight on them for traction, would pull a house down! LOL

Thats good stuff. My Troy Bilt 21 HP ought to do ok.

Heck the tractors we racing at the fair would do 60 plus MPH Not a bad idea building one for the ice . Change some pullies for the gearing and spike the tires and you are ready to go

Maine The Way Life Should Be and is going to be for me and the dogs before to long

I have a question about Breakneck in Union -- it states that BREAKNECK POND, Union-Massachusetts (92 acres)
Walk-in access (approximately 1.2 miles from north end of Bigelow Pond).
Note: Connecticut or Massachusetts license legal on entire pond.
Species: (S YP CB CP LMB)

Other: Use of internal combustion engines prohibited. Motor vehicle access prohibited.

Can a Electric Golf cart propelled by battery be used?

Thanks,

If there is a state boat launch on a water body(there's not at Breakneck), we allow people to offload registered ATVs/snowmobiles to access the ice. Because Breakneck is walk in only, there's no launch so you would not be permitted to drive the golf cart down the trail to access the ice.
