I'm looking to get a new boat this spring that will troll down and have enough power to plane 1000 lbs of gear in Canada. I currently have a 94'alumacraft Backtroller with a 40 merc. I love the power of the 40 Merc and its ability to troll down to 1.5mph on calm waters.
I'm looking to stay with a 16' but do not know what boat or what motor would be close to the older rig I have.
Does any one own a 50-60 Evinrude e-tech? how do they troll down?
I'm trying to keep a smaller 16' like the Backtroller, but also have the power to haul the loaded gear.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
