[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 519899, member: 13975"] I ordered a lifepo4 battery yesterday. I am going to be able to place it on it's long side and fit it in the cubby under my small front deck so the run one way should be less than 5 ft so it looks like 6 awg will work. I drilled a test hole at the upper left corner of the cubby and using my borescope, I could see I had a couple inch gap between the wood under the wood decking and the factory foam and a clear path to forwardmost left region of the deck where I will install the plug. My current trolling motor is 45 lb thrust and my likely next one will be 55 lb so I'm just going to go ahead and install a 60 amp in the cubby as well. I also think I will have room for an onboard charger in there too. I'm going to get the breaker, receptacle, wire and connections ordered up tonight so hopefully I can get it all installed pretty soon. [/QUOTE]
