[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 507359, member: 32426"] The Leelock bottom mount rudder seems a bit oversized to me but, it probably isn’t when you consider the application. It is designed for use in rivers and ocean currents. Some guys are using these to fish rivers with strong currents like the Columbia. They use the kicker (gas trolling motor) in a fixed position to provide some thrust and then use the electric bow mount for steering and whatever additional thrust is needed to obtain trolling speed. It frees you from being stuck on the tiller all the time. I intend to try this technique on my new used boat. [/QUOTE]
