trolling motor?

Does anyone use an electric trolling motor with their Legacy?  At least in theory, it seems a 55 lbs. thrust trolling motor should be able to move a Legacy at 3-4 knots.  I generally sail in lakes so not fighting currents. I currently have a Honda 2.3 hp outboard, but its has wild mood swings and am looking for something more reliable.

I have no problem pushing mine with a Minn Kota 30 on the small lake I go to. A bit late but for what it's worth.

  you always want to consider the weight of the battery. i would try to get that honda sorted out. i use a 94 johnson 4 horse two stroke on my 18 footer, never misses a beat and doesnt care about fuel quality like a lot of 4 strokes
