    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.

    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

    Sac-a-lait had built a deck extention in the front of the boat before I got it. So the front deck comes all the way back to the console. He had a couple of big lead weights under there for some forward weight so it would plane out easier. I removed the lead weights and they actually weighed more than the two batteries. 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.
