Trolling Motor Battery Group Size
Posted on 3/24/15 at 5:00 pm

I'll be installing a 70lb thrust MK on my 18-ft bay boat. The old motor was only 12V, and I used a group 27 battery. I'm not sure that I can fit two group 27 batteries under my console and haven't had the chance to measure. Is using two group 24 deep cycle batteries for that motor even an option, or will I just be throwing away my money on 2-hr battery life? TIA
