Thanks anybody for the inputs!

I am hesitating between a boat weighting 440 pounds and a very nice one
weighting around 1000 pounds. Will a 12V 55 lb motor with two batteries
(in parallel?) do the job still as fine?


I have two 12 volt batts hooked up in parallel for my 12 volt trolling
motor. Works fine, and I get lots of time on the trolling motor. I think my
boat weighs a little more than yours.
