[QUOTE="Scott F, post: 467115, member: 23059"] If you will be dealing with current, I’d go with an 80 lb thrust, 24 volt unit. On flat water, a 55 lb thrust unit will move the boat. I had a 55 for years and it was alright, but I’m so glad I upgraded to the 80. I had times with the 55 when the wind was blowing and I had to start the big engine because I was being blown onto shore and didn’t have enough power with the trolling motor. [/QUOTE]
