A little help please
I need to get a trolling motor for my pontoon. I have a 20 foot G3 with a 70HP Evinrude. Grizzly has 2 bow mounts hand control. One is 55 Lbs. thrust 12 volt and the other is 70Lbs. thrust 24 volt. Would it benifit me that much to change over to 24 volt and go with the 70 or do you think I'd be satisfied with the 55 Lbs.?? Thanks, Ferdi aka Fred

24 volt all the way for a boat with that much area to catch the wind.

24 volt....you will be happy with the results.....I did the same thing a few years back.
Nothing better than getting out on the water.

That pontoon is a real barge. Give thought to the 105lb . You will really like it. That is what the big guns run on ther 20 bass boats and it works!!!!!
