[QUOTE="rusty.hook, post: 231510, member: 3628"] Go with the 45 or 54lb motor. Because the more yall fish on later, the more weight yall are going to add to your boat. I have an alum. 15' G3, semi-v with a center console, lots of tackle, a cooler with four 32oz bottles with frozen water, 2 ol farts that go about 230 each and 2 batteries, 6 gallon gas and I can go all day with mine and still have plenty of juice left. I have a 55 lb hand operated Motor Guide troll motor with the fold out mounting bracket on mine. The key to all this, as soon as I back into my boat stall next to my house, I plug in my on-board 6 amp charger. [b]Keep the batteries charged, that's the key.[/b] [/QUOTE]
