[QUOTE="Bigkat650, post: 256878, member: 7270"] Sweet little project! Looks like you got a great start to it too! =D> Ohh, and you may want to plan on upgrading your battery in the near future. A 'starting battery' like the one pictured next to your trolling motor is not ideal for running a trolling motor. A deep cycle marine battery is going to suit your needs better. The Starting Battery will work for now, but you will not have nearly the reserve or the longevity of a deep cycle battery. Depending on where you run though, you may be better suited to get a small 3-5hp gas outboard... they can run all day on just a gallon or two of gas, and you can find old classic ones that still run for about the price of a new deep cycle battery (If you look hard enough!)
