Hello,
After peaking in on this website for almost a year, I finally decided to get my Jon boat modification going. I have a 2006 Lowe 1448MT that I'm now a few days into rigging the supports for the deck. I figured I would have a few questions here and there so I decided to join the club today. I have been running a Minn Kota 30 lb. transom trolling motor and had my battery in the back inside a Minn Kota power box. With the new mod, I bought a Minn Kota Edge 45 bow mount. I thinking of moving the battery to the front under the deck. I guess technically speaking it's really about 3/4 of the way to the front. Any thoughts on whether or not this would be a good move? I'd really like to know what the opinion is on battery placement. I figure it will save me some money too, since I won't need to buy any 6 AWG wire. Thanks.
