[QUOTE="Jim, post: 19514, member: 2"] Waterwings is right. If you go above 55# it will be 24volt (requiring 2 batteries). The one battery that is charged by the outboard should be enough to run everything except the trolling motor. Thats how it is set up on my G3. Batteries go by group size which is an indicator for physical size. Your real concern is going to be getting it to fit where you want it. All group 27 batteries are the same size but the insides are different from every manufacturer. You will be happy with the 55, but you will wish you got the 80 and then when you have the 80 you will wish you had the 110. It never ends :lol: If it was me I would dump the second battery that runs the accessories and get the biggest grouping you can fit for the 55# TM. Your accesories and lights will last all day and night and when you make small runs with your motor it should charge the main battery. Get a nice 10 amp dual bank charger and your golden. [/QUOTE]
