[QUOTE="San Dimas, post: 330680, member: 10335"] I have a 14' aluminum Gregor boat that I use for fishing in the eastern Sierras. Most of my fishing is trolling. Right now I use a 15hp Evinrude but I'm thinking of going to just an electric trolling motor. I have a 34# thrust Minnkota which works fine but i'm not sure it would be good as my only motor. I was thinking that maybe a 55# thrust motor would do the trick. I troll 6-8 hours and could recharge the battery at nite. Sometimes the lakes get windy and a little rough so I want enough power. I fish with one other person in the boat, so not a lot of weight. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
