Thread: Batteries

Well, ok. Look at the pic. I have it set up so my connection from the trolling motor connect where the arrow is. That connection has wires going under the floor about 4 feet away and connect to the battery with the clamps in the original picture I sent. Since the battery in only a few feet away from the actual connection, I can just move the battery up to the corner of the boat and connect the trolling motor direct to the battery. Longer story as to why its set up the way it is. I just liked the clamps because its easy to change out batteries if necessary. I think I'm going to break down and buy a 55 lb motor and connect direct to the battery. Having to run on high speed too much I think compounds the battery issues. Thanks for all the help.
