I have a 8hp merc troller on mine----It has gotten me in many miles in the salt and currents--But it was slow.

I would prefer to have a 15hp for my troller backup motor--same weight as a 9.9hp.

Trim tabs---you bet--Lencos and it made a huge difference in the boat!!!

My experience is to not put anything behind a chine, not a transducer or trim tabs, the water is pretty turbulent there & air rides down the chines, the clean water is between the chines. Look over the back of the boat running in a chop & you will see what I mean.

Exactly---per instructions. As far as transducers--never behind a chine.:clap:
