Thread: Trolling motor help

I know most of you guys run big boats n lake fish, often most I read and see foot controlled TMs, but I'm setting up a 12' weld craft for fishing my river. Tiller that'll be mounted port side close to the bow. A lot of the old timers fish this way here. I've done it the same with my bass hunter in the past but my new to me boat is much heavier and is rated commercial. I'll be putting a 15 or 20 hp on the back.
Question being, for those that have used one or the other, or hopefully both, the minn kota endura c2 vs max...... Is there that much diff performance wise to justify the huge price diff? I don't mind paying but not for nonsense. While the variable speed control with the max sounds nice it's not necessary for me but the idea of longer run time would be worth it.
Any help or opinions would be appreciated.
