You won't have any problems. I have a Yamaha 50 hp with a trolling plate. Can troll from .5 mph to about 1.2 mph with plate down. For Kokes I sometimes troll with plate up to get 2.2 or so at idle.

The motor doesn't seem to "load up" when trolling all day. Sometimes though the control is tough with plate down if the wind starts blowing you sideways when trolling close to shore. I just pull the plate and power out.
