[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 2950633, member: 796"] " It has a 12 volt, 55 lbs thrust trolling motor, but plan to run 2 batteries in series" For a 12 volt motor, two 12 volt batteries in SERIES produces 24 volts and will burn out the motor. Two 12 volt batteries in PARALLEL will match the 12 volt motor, but produce twice the trolling hours as a single battery. Even running the trolling motor all day, I've used a single large 12 volt battery for the trolling motor and recharged it at night. [/QUOTE]
