[QUOTE="MrGiggles, post: 511669, member: 22613"] You should be getting more than that. I'd say to look over your batteries closely if they are not new. In series, you're only as strong as the weakest battery. Poor connections are another thing to look at, including the plug if you use one. Some of them are pretty undersized for the current they carry. If your boat has factory wiring that runs to the back of the boat, chances are it is undersized as well for a 24V motor. Any source of resistance will cause voltage to drop and amperage to increase, you'll be losing battery power to heat. A toothy, finicky fish that are excellent table fair, native to most river systems in the central US. They fight like a boot, but I still go after them. Catching a 10" walleye is more exciting to me than a 5lb bass. Couldn't tell you why, bass fishing was never my thing. The best walleye fishing is up north, but our conservation department does a pretty good job of maintaining fisheries for them here. They are native to the river systems that our reservoirs were made out of. [/QUOTE]
