I have an argo conquest 8 wheel with supertracks. It barely moves in the water. Looking at the tracks it seems that it would be possible to add some type of minipaddle to the edge of the tracks to help propell the argo in the water. I am envisioning some type of rectangular metal piece (3" by 3" or something like that) which would bolt or somehow be connected to the edge of the tracks and stick out to the side of the track. The top of the track is out of the water and the bottom is in the water so the paddles would not work against themselves as the track is turning. Has anyone come up with something to improve water speed without using an outboard or trolling motor?? or does anyone sell something like I am thinking of?

Thanks
