Meant to ask thins question, work cut me off. I know I use my boat different than most here but does anyone run trolling motors on their rigs? What is adequate for a 19X60? I want to go 12 volt to keep the weight down.

what you gona be trolling in?

i would go with atleast a 70lb and deffinatly a 24v, yea thats an extra battery but that big boat will carry it no problem. you will drain a battery quick on a 45lb 12v on that size boat!

Well I will have a converter and generator on board so drainage shouldn't be an issue. Mostly coastal outta the wind as i'll be flounder gigging.
