[QUOTE="airshot, post: 507321, member: 1183"] If it would be to fast, there are many ways to slow it down...drift socks, even a 5 gallon bucket for starters. Adding a prop with less pitch works well, but caution if you open the throttle so the motor won't over rev !! Try trolling into any wind, that will slow things down.. Gotta try before you know for sure. If you can add extra weight into the bow, as the bow sets lower into the water that will also slow you down. Better to have a little more power than you need....letbus know how it works out.... [/QUOTE]
