Subject: 90hp Optimax for Trolling?


Has anyone used a 90hp Mercury Optimax for any significant amount of trolling?

It's not a four stroke, so are there any concerns about fouling after running for hours/days at slow speeds? If so, what can you do about it?
How slow will it turn just above idle?
Does it respond quickly with full power after trolling for a couple hours?
Will I get tired out steering it when trolling a long time with a tiller?

Thanks in advance.
