[QUOTE="TNtroller, post: 409459, member: 4251"] Sorry, mis-read your original post. Since you don't have a TM, then look for a variable speed TM, which will allow you to better control the speed the prop turns, and in turn the boat speed as well. Minn Kota makes several different TM's with variable speed controls that also help extend battery life/usage. Bigger/more thrust is better as you can always use lower power settings with the variable speeds. If you troll for panfish (crappie), then the variable speed ones are almost a necessity to control boat speed once you find the magic speed for the day. Getting a more powerful TM will come in handy for the times when the wind picks up. [/QUOTE]
