Down-rigging and trolling - many guys prefer remote (helm) steering.
If you want electric start, power tilt and the remote steer - it's likely only going to be available in a 9.9 hp or up.
If you want a tiller steer, anything like a 6,8 or 9.9 is just fine.
Also look at how many amps (if any) you want your motor to send back to your cranking battery bank.
The selection of the "best" kicker motor really depends on how you use it and what you want/need - not all HP's come with all the options.

Not trying to argue but my t8 has electric start tilt trim and remote steering. It will run forever on very little fuel.
