Default Trolling motor = need fuse?

P.S. You don't fuse a 32 amp load with a 32 amp fuse, unless you like
replacing fuses frequently. You fuse at the battery to protect in case
of catostropic failure, such as the cables shorting out. That is why
auto fuse links at the battery are rated at hundreds of amps, so you can
pull a full load of say 50 amps and blow the fuse link if a cable short
tries to pull thousands of amps.
