open water swimming

I need some help if anyone has any experience here. In the summer I go with the family to a family compound on one of the finger lakes (canandiagua, which has a very nice annual open water swm) during this time I often swim across the lake a few times. I go with a boat and someone rowing it but it is really a hard job, swimming is easier. I am looking to buy an electric trolling motor to go onto the row boat. Does anyone have any experience with this, how much power to get, battery life etc. Thanks

    I don't know how strong those things are. but it's just to keep up with swimming--so a little goes far for this purpose. i told my friend she can OWS with me--she can paddle in a big innertube, and I'll swim. Fun! do you have a link for this place you're going to? i love those waters--they are beautiful!
