[QUOTE="kryptonica, post: 311886, member: 10349"] RE batteries in back; I actually heard a bit about peoples stern swinging around without a skeg of some sort in the stern. I wonder if the batteries back there would be helpful. However, I also know that you want a really short run from the battery to the trolling motor otherwise the cables get a lot of resistance. If you want them in the back, you gotta use some 6# probably. Have to check the charts. It might be more. I also imagine the bow can take a lot of weight whereas the stern can get bogged down. I was thinking of using the front trolling motor to get around mostly but if I was getting serious and needed to cover some ground, I would certainly put a larger stern mount tm on it. It just seems more efficient. you can get a 70lbs stern mount for an ok price. [/QUOTE]
