    You can ask Creekslick on the AR board also. He runs a kicker with a Terrova for steering at Greers all the time!!!

    So different question....whats the down side to just running the main motor vs the kicker? other than having to use some drift socks

    It is not good to idle a 2 stroke big motor all day, If you have a 4 stoke go for it but get trolling plate installed on the motor to slow you down.

    Yep do it all the time. I added a raptor rudder to mine so I can control direction with almost no power at all from the Terrova.

    Big motor burns more gas than the kicker.... and just extra wear on the motor.
