ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to attachments to the anticavitation plate of a boat motor for making and controlling small variations in boat speed below the normal motor idling speed to facilitate trolling for fish. The trolling speed control includes an incrementally adjustable unitary plate mounted for movement between a position fully across the normal paths of the propeller wash, thereby to slow the speed of the boat and to a fully retracted position out of the path of the propeller wash. This invention relates to motorboat low speed control devices.
