My buddy uses a trolling plate on his 90 horse motor in place of his trolling motor, and it works great. On thing we have a problem with is the fact that, as the prop turns, the propulsion hits the plate spinning in one direction. This makes his boat gradually turn more and more to the right if left unattended. It's sometimes a pain having to constantly make corrections to the wheel to keep towing a straight line. The one he has is the rigid plastic kind, and he's been using it regularly for about 4 years now without a problem.
