    F40LA -Advertising claim said it is incredibly smooth. I got the optional electric troll controll that lets you adjust trolling speed from 650-900 rpm in 50 rpm increments. Upon start up at 750-800 rpm’s it shakes a lot. Using troll control 2 settings are fairly smooth, 650,700. At 1000 it is the smoothest. Installed a prop brake to troll at 900-1000. I spent $800. for the troll contrll option which is useless above 900. Yamaha should retract their advertising claim of INCREDIBLY SMOOTH.
