A system is provided for controlling operations of at least two motors on a watercraft on a body of water. The system comprises a kicker motor, a trolling motor, one or more processors, and memory including computer program code. The computer program code is configured to, when executed, cause the one or more processors to receive an indication regarding a current mode of operation for the watercraft, determine, based on the current mode, a first setting for the kicker motor, and determine, based on the current mode, a second setting for the trolling motor. The computer program code is also configured to, when executed, cause the one or more processors to cause (i) the kicker motor to operate according to the first setting, and (ii) the trolling motor to operate according to the second setting so as to cause the watercraft to operate according to the current mode.
