I was recently at the boat show in Vancouver and chatting with a fella (he has his own Fishing show, Big Coast??). He has twins on his boat and says he ditched the kicker and dials down the rpms to troll on the mains. Alternating to keep hours even.
I am repowering with twin 200’s and the Merc rep says I can troll at low speeds (25 rpm increments.) and it will not harm the engine. Extra maintenance and lots of hours are obvious cons.
I have an extra engine for the tender as a safety as we fish North of Hardy.
What do you all think of not having a kicker when you have twins?? Anyone else set up this way?
Thanks guys!
