[QUOTE="danw77, post: 511247, member: 1642"] My current 25hp is a tiller and the 9.9 is a tiller also (I already have both motors). I run the 25hp on a couple lakes, plus the river and bay. I’m just trying to figure out the best/easiest way to run a 9.9 on the restricted lakes. It’s fine for me to have both on the boat as long as the 25hp isn’t in the water (verified through F&W and the actual legal code). These lakes are too big to be accessible by trolling motor and I already have the 9.9 as well. I’ll pull the 25hp off if I have to (I’ve already done it to run the 9.9 in it’s place), but that’s a bit of a chore and I was hoping for an easier solution where I can just attach the 9.9 on those occasions when I need it. It makes sense to me to run this like a kicker setup, but I have not seen any such setups where both motors are tillers, hence my question. I was hoping to get some advice on the best way to do this, and maybe some “lessons learned” from those who have already tried this. My boat can handle the weight of both motors on the transom.
