Min Kota 30lb 12Volt Trolling Motor Amperage question

[cyberflexx]

I have a ( 1998 yr, model unknown) 12volt 30lb MK with foot pedal and wanted to know what the amperage draw is of this unit on it's highest setting. I am going to be wiring this into my breaker power switch panel and wanted to know what size breaker to buy.

Thanks

I don't know the draw... but you'd be fine with a 40amp breaker

For 12volt systems they normally say close to an amp to a pound of thrust.
30 ish.
