electric trolling motor question
Anyone using one either salt or fresh water with battery knowledge ?
Wondering as to battery suggestions.
I assume deep cycle but battery size (group 24, 27, 31, 8d)
My main question is (depending on which battery) how much usage/running time I should expect with a 3hp motor on a 12ft aluminum ?
My son Matty & I went out on one of our lakes in Wrentham last evening.
Used the gas outboard to get out to some spots then the 3hp electric to move around slow and battery went dead 20-30 minutes of use (fully charged the deep cycle the day before but admittedly the battery is a few years old)
Thanks in advance.
Also.
Matty caught a handful of large mouth and I just sat back and smiled.
Nice change of pace from the salt !
