Mike the Pike Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Cliff I also find my 60hp four stroke slow on the take off. Recently on vacation I started the boat off in a turn when taking off you would not believe it you get up on plane much quicker . Give this a try I am sure you will be up and running quickly. Make sure you turn sharp when you take off. as for slow trolling speed you will need a kicker. I chose my 60hp Yamaha because it has a button on the tiller that allows me to drop 300rpm's this gets me down to 1.5mph. I still use the kicker when I want to troll even slower. I know Mecury may have this on their tillers but not sure about console models. MTP
