Who can tell me what about trolling plates? I'm thinking about putting one on a 70 horse outboard. I know you can do a lot with drift socks, but I'm thinking with my particular set up that I might be better off using a trolling plate and moving forward rather than getting splash guards and still getting wet and probably still moving too fast. Are there particular brands or styles that are more or less effective? Anything I should be aware of before I get one? Is a 70 horse outboard enough to bend one if I forget it down? Scoot
We're usually fully stocked but you caught me on a bad night!
Tuesday night is usually "board meeting" night if you know what I mean. Stop in and have a tasty beverage some Tuesday night after these holidays are over and things get back to normal.
