Do I need a rudder?
#1
I have a 2011 BassHunter EX with a 55lb trolling on the front transom and a 8hp Yamaha 2 stroke on the rear transom

Not my set-up but here's a visual reference http://www.fishingmonthly.com.au/app/web...Hunt_2.jpg

Next month I'm taking the boat on quite a few waters that only allow electric only motors. The trolling motor is hard wired through the hull so I just can't swap it to the rear transom. If I run the boat as is (with trolling on front) and with the gas motor removed do I need to add a rudder? I'm concerned that with the trolling up front and no weight in the back the boat will track around to either side whether I want it to or not. Suggestions....Advice?
