Trolling motor battery question?

I am upgrading to an 80lb terrova with ipilot. I am looking to upgrade my batteries also. What are the best batteries to go with in your opinion. Thanks!

Group 31's either Interstate or Trojans

Lots of different opinions on batteries. I like the Interstates. You gonna LOVE that I-pilot.Thumbs Up

"G" knows what he's talking about when it comes to batteries.

I've got an 1860 F&F. I know this question may be a little hard to answer but on average about how long could I expect to be able to pull cranks with the Trojans. I know several variables come into play here but I was just curious what u guys think.

I am using Group 31 Interstates and I have a XV180 SeaArk....which is 18 ft. long and very wide.....I can pull cranks with my 80 lb. thrust Terrova at 1.8 mph all day and still have battery left.

Awesome. That is they reply I was hoping for. I probably won't buy the batteries until early next spring but I want to have the extra cash ready then. Trolling motor and 3 bank charger are arriving tomorrow so I'm all excited like it's Christmas.

All group 31's are not alike....get the ones with the highest reserve amp/hr rating
