[QUOTE="jplomeo, post: 495819, member: 24860"] Hi Folks, Thanks to all who share their knowledge and expertise on these forums!! I have a silly question: I have just installed two deep cycle batteries (same size, make and age-wired in parallel on the bow ) for the 12 volt trolling motor on a 17 ft crestliner (aluminum) for additional trollling run time. Should I be running a cable to hook up the negative of this front bank to the starting battery negative in the back by the outboard? And If so, what size would be adequate for the 17 feet distance? Thank you so much! JP [/QUOTE]
