Location: Warroad, Mn | Almost any 9.9 or so is O.K. For muskie trolling on the LOTWs you won't have to worry about how slow you can go, but rather how fast you can go. I'd get something with electric start as that's a great thing to have. I don't have power tilt, but wish I had it many times. Most two strokes will do the job as well as the newer four strokes and are probably a bit cheaper and most are very reliable. A slightly used 2 stroke can be a great buy and a great kicker, although the need to mix gas can be a bit of a pain. The new four strokes are very nice, but expensive.
As Steve says mount the kicker on the drivers side. Much easier to see and use your electronics on the console.
