TROLLING PLATE FOR INBOARD OUTBOARD MANUAL
Anybody have a particular model of trolling plate that they recommend? Is the manual better because it locks down and therefore has to slow down the boat whereas the automatic plate may not come down as far or could cause more resistance therefore making my motor work harder and loose some of it performance? I also have a fin on the motor to help her plane the boat and such these trolling plates act like a fin also right? Does it affect the speed because it creates more drag? I know my little motor can get me going pretty good but it does work (kinda hard) to get her up and running like mentioned above (i mean come on it is a 16ft boat with a 25). When it come to the trolling plates do you loose any ability to control the boat when trolling? That was the main problem with the drift sock. troll master control looks to be similar to a feature on the motor already where i can control the idle plus or minus 50 rpms till the engine dies or am moving along pretty quick. I like the newer features on the ones today but since mines not broke I'm not going to fix it.
TROLLING PLATE FOR INBOARD OUTBOARD PRO
I have just the Pro and its been doing its job for about 6yrs now. This will help tweak your rpms up at a more desireable speed which it virtually hard to do by hand with a tiller handle or up front manual throttle control. Your trolling speed will be down next to shutting the engine off. Also I would check to see if a TrollMaster Pro series electronic throttle control would work on your size motor to work in conjunction with a troll plate. I agree with a troll plate since you have listed options. Anyways heres a pic of the boat for reference. I also wonder how i put this on the back of my boat as there isnt allot of space back there. I am not to fond of this idea as i am on a budget but if there is no other way then looks like i better start saving. Do you guys think this will slow it down enough? Will have controll issues like i do when pulling the drift sock. I was wondering how does this effect the handling of the boat? Next idea is to put a trolling plate on the motor. one of the three options is two drift socks one on either side off mid ship cleats. I am currently looking at 3 options unless someone has some other idea. I also dont like that i cant go for multiple days on a single charge with the trolling motor. I have a bow mounted trolling motor that i use but in wind it becomes hard to control. I have tried one drift sock out the back but controlling it is useless. I would really like to be able to have contro l all the way down to.
I cant get it to troll slow enough.The slowest i can get to go is about 1.5 to 1.7 on a calm lake. I have a 16ft lund fury with a 25hp etec on it.
