[QUOTE="benjineer, post: 245953, member: 3833"] No such thing as a trolling motor too big or too many batteries. 45lb should do a good job though. My 12V 54lb does pretty well on my 16' except when it's real windy. Then it gets tired pretty fast, which is a battery issue. Considering parallelling two deep cycle batteries for starting and trolling. I now have a small starting battery and one deep cycle for the TM. I wouldn't do that with anything I didn't have the option of rope starting, but I've got a 25 also. [/QUOTE]
