Dennis,

Was curious how your 25 worked on your Marinette. Just ordered a NuticalTwist set-up for 28' Sportfish model and getting ready to purchase a kicker. Could you share how well it pushed your boat for trolling,and would you be comfortable with it as an emergency source to reach a safe harbor in a decent wind and sea?

Really admire what you have done to your Marinette.

Thanks Rich. Sorry I didn't respond sooner.

The 25 pushed her at 7mph and the 15 does 5mph. The 15 is quiet, electric start and tilt is very nice, and the remote throttle control is awesome. Also, since I tied into the ship's fuel supply, I don't have to tote a portable fuel tank around.

I'm confident we would be able to limp home on the kicker.

Good Luck,
