No plate on engine. The engine is a Mercury 225 Optimax. The boat has trim tabs (much like flaps on an airplane). I lower them to the down position to create drag. Engine has troll control so it is set at the lowest engine RPM (550). Keep in mind that the down riggers slow the boat down as well as the Planer Boards. I am trolling around 2.4 MPH with that setup. If I want to troll less than 2, the Terrova is used.
