WOW! After looking at some of the pictures, I'm ashamed to complain. I would like to thank all for your input. Thank you.
Happy spring & back to boating.
Best regards,

Definitely get a 2 stage for a walk behind. I "think" the attachment I had for a garden tractor was single and did just fine. Now my 6' blower I put on a tractor was 2 stage. That thing would eat 2x6s..... Now I plow..... :)

I'll second that especially if you you want to blow wet snow. I have a single stage John Deere "49" blower attachment for my Deere 318 and even with 18hp, really wet snow will plug up the chute.

here's a 49 on a 316 which is essentially the same as a 318

A 2-stage will definitely do better with wet snow

Cheers,

Since we're talking about snow. A forecast model puts 1 foot of snow in Duluth, Mn Mon afternoon/evening..... Just one model, not sure which one. That would be nutz....... Haven't had snow on the ground for a month. 72 yesterday.
