[QUOTE="nashua fisherman, post: 113427, member: 2192"] you can get a little more speed from your trolling motor if you loosen up the screws behind the prop and rotate the magnet housing. with the motor running at middle speed(top speed can throw a winding), rotate the maganet housing until the motor speeds up and the screws start to rub on the stator. snug them up until the rubbing stops, this may take a couple trys if your going for maximum advance. ive run my minn kota 32# trolling motor like this all season. you will gain more thrust too at the expence of reduced run time. you could also modify a nissan 2.5-3.5hp 7x7 composite prop to fit. the stock prop has a pitch of 4". also, dont run the motor out of water at full speed. the windings on minn kota motors arent that tight and can come out of the grooves. if anyones really interested i could post pictures or a video of what im talking about.
