RLinNH Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 I have a 16 ft. Sylvan Explorer (A very deep Vee 16 ft Aluminum boat.), with a 40 Horsepower Merc. I bought a Minn Kota 55lb thrust Maxum Motor (52 inch Shaft) with a Minn Kota MK 230 On board charging system (20 amps, 2 banks) and a Trojan Battery for the Motor. I am SOOOOOOOOO looking forward to wetting the boat tomorrow just to cruise around a lake with a trolling motor in the bow. I hope I have enough thrust for my boat :-[t, and I think I will. Quote
Skwerl Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 A 55 will be plenty for that size boat. But if it isn't, you can just send it to me and I'll find something to do with it. Quote
