I can understand running one engine for a 'trolling' speed. But the OP was vague on what boat, engines, and purpose he's trying to achieve besides merely 'saving fuel'

He hasn't been back either. Lol!


A friend has a 25 foot outboard fishing boat with a full transom
bracket. It has a 300 hp Yamaha centered on the platform, and there's a
20 hp outboard mounted on the bracket to the side of the big Yamaha.
Steering bracket connects both to the steering wheels. Nothing unusual
around here. He runs in and out of the harbor on the small outboard, and
also uses it to troll for stripers. The small outboard has no problems
maintaining the 6 mph harbor speed limit.
