    V-bottom trolling motor mount.

    Just thought that I would share some photos of my trolling motor mount. I left enough room on the deck to mount a factory bow type trolling motor mount when I get one. Anyway, here are the photos.

    One battery or two ???

    I'm planning my build and cannot decide between one or two batteries. It will be a 12V system with onboard charger. I will run livewell on timer, fishfinder, trolling motor, and lights. Is there any real advantage to two batteries, or should I just stick with one? Thanks, Anthony
