Yes the electric motor up front is always on, In my boat when there is no wind and the kicker is in gear and at idle and my front trolling motor is set between 2-3 my boat goes 1.5 mph, I use the trolling motor to make fine speed adjustments and also to steer. I find that the boat is a lot more responsive steering from the front than the back. As the wind picks up I have to turn up the speed on the electric and the kicker I like to fish across the wind until it get strong enough to make rollers then I fish directly into it so that I can control my speed I typically don't like the wind at my back because I can not go as slow as I want to.
