Title: Float tube fins question
Post by: Kit Carson on April 30, 2016, 12:15:50 PM: Are fins enough to propel a float tube around a small lake?
Never used my float tube before and I don't see any place on it for oars to attach.
I found some fins that go over waders online but I don't know if that's going to be enough to do the job... :dunno:

Any input?
