Re: Kicker Horsepower
Lake restrictions is reason for 9.9 like I said but the two main reasons for the kicker is fuel economy and slow trolling, extended low RPM's tend to carb up a big motor also.
But the main reason for that little fellow is to get me home and to get me out of a shipping lane if the big boy lies down on me. I realise I will not break any speed records doing it but there is nothing like the insurance of a second motor to get you home. In rough seas and a dead motor I won't make a lot of head way but can at least keep the boat turned into the waves which may save my arse until help arrives ;)
