what size kicker ?
You think it would take to push a 32'er?
Seriously. I don't have troll valves, so it's 5 knots in slow ahead with both motors in gear. With one in gear, dragging a parachute, it's slow enough. But no steerage in any sort of wind or current. Thinking about a small tiller steer 4 stroke hanging off the back on a removeble bracket..:rolleyes: |
250 HP......:smash:

I wonder how much steerage you would have with a kicker on that size boat? I wouldn't think much at all.
I assume you have tried slowing it down by bottoming out your trim tabs? |
Don't matter, there 22x24"props. Nothing slows it down you'll fall over if your not carefull putting them both in gear at the same time. Perfect for tuna but a little fast for bass. Not trying to push it fast just a knot or so. Maybe I'll just drift all spring or put up a sail.

I'll hook a tow line to your bow and keep you under 1.5 kts if you want to split fuel cost !

Adding trolling valves is the only way you can slow her down correctly and still have steering.
You would have close to zero steering with a kicker. You are better off running on one and using the other for adjustments than going through the mess of a kicker. A sock, or bucket etc...is a PIA, and isn't going to obtain what you need either. You have some big wheels on there. |
