[QUOTE="60DRB, post: 482387, member: 11940"] I just want to get some rational educated recommendations on this... I have a skinny 1636 jon-boat made back in the early 1970s. I have a 1970 9.8 Mercury on it, but have never owned a trolling motor. I will be constructing a deck for the front 1/3 of this boat. I want to get a trolling motor to mount on the front deck so I can access (smaller) local water areas that don't allow gas engines. I want to know what motor would be good for this sized boat, and what mount and battery(ies) to get. Frankly, watching all the you-tube reviews gives me a headache...too much chatter, and everything they review is "fantastic". I'll be retiring soon, so fishing is going to become "important" to me again. HELP! [/QUOTE]
