I've got a 24v powerdrive 70 lb thrust on my glass boat and it does just fine. I can run around 4 mph with the TM and pull cranks for 4 to 5 hrs at 1.7 mph on a pair of class 31 batteries. Of course I have two sets of batteries in the boat, just in case.
Good grief man. You got any room left in the boat to store anything wif 5 batteries on board?:eek:
Ha scott you may be able to take them other two batteries out and get another hour out of the first two! man I dont have much room for anything else in my boat, but gotta make do!
I'm curious on how long Ima be able to pull at 1.5 to 1.7 with my batteries before they run out of juice. I haven't been able to run them for more than 2 hours so far at a time so I got no dang idea how long they'll last
I think with the 36 you should be fine for a good long while DD...
Best figure that out Friday... Run em completely dead Friday and see how long it takes..Quote:

I have a second set of TM wires going from the second set of batteries to an extra female TM plug. When I kill one pair of batteries, I just change to the other plug and get after it.
Man thats pretty slick right there....
Gonna put em to the test Blue, that's for sure. I got back though in case they run down to much. Got a trolling plate on the big motor. Man, that is slick right there with the batteries
Glad I read this, remembered I hadn't plugged mine back up after yesterday.
